Education has side effects like drugs and is a double-edged sword. I feel more and more that education has side effects like drugs. It teaches students knowledge, but at the same time, it will destroy their intuition and destroy their normal thinking ability. The higher the degree is really not the better. For example, "time" and "space" are human brain fiction, they themselves do not exist, there is no so-called time and space in the universe, if there is, then who can find them out? Who knows their composition? Because if they exist, there must be a composition, but no one can find them, do not know what chemical or physical composition they are, so how can you say they exist? But this is the obvious fact that many highly educated students just refuse to believe that time does not exist, and they cannot understand this statement. My explanation is that their thinking is destroyed by education, they have lost their power of intuition.
Believe that relativity is the result of this broken intuition, such people cannot understand that "time" and "space" are fiction, they insist that "time, space" exists, and can be bent, they cannot understand the difference between "abstract things" and "physical entities" and distinguish between them. The pseudoscience of relativity is so popular until now because of the thought flaws of many scientists and students.
Maybe can cause someone become too fanatic to such kind of religion or belief and leave his/her formerly religion or belief.
Expecially when his/her own religion has no contribution for civilization.
Dear Duan Xian Xiang,
well...,
Education, like any other human endeavor, can have both positive and negative effects or unintended consequences. While education is generally considered beneficial and essential for personal development, societal progress, and improved opportunities, it is important to acknowledge that certain side effects or challenges can arise. Few perspectives on the potential side effects of education like
It is essential to address these potential side effects by continuously evolving and improving educational systems. Emphasizing critical thinking, creativity, inclusivity, and adaptability can help mitigate these challenges and foster a more balanced and effective educational experience.
I was really interested but surprised when I read this question. Personally, I think that education is a beneficial part of how we bring our children up and then continue to enable them to have a better standard of living as they are able to have a better job.
ResearchGate members by definition are probably very well educated, I'm sure.
But that is just my view.

I think there are side effects, I think the relativity is wrong, and the error in finding it is very simple. And because I found a strange phenomenon that people with high education believe in relativity, while people with low education don't believe in relativity, Therefore, I think education should have side effects. People with high education may not be smart, nor rational. This is really strange, at least in our country.

Of course, this conclusion is based on the idea that "relativity is indeed wrong," and if one day relativity is proved to be wrong, it is true.
A fellow student once quipped: "Alienation is the plight of the aware." I guess that is potentially a side effect of education.
