    I agree that there are major issues with the cost of education, but I don’t see similarities between belief in religion and belief that education is a worthwhile investment

        I’m talking about beliefs, including, but not limited to: people walking on water, filling a boat with a pair of every animal in existence, and travelling to heaven to negotiate, with God, the number of daily prayers required by a believer. None of these things have actually been witnessed, because they simply didn’t happen

        With respect to the belief that schooling can result in the obtaining of lucrative employment - many people, including myself, have witnessed students acquiring skills and experience in school that they used to obtain jobs that provide ample wages

        I don’t see a parallel between the two

                It’s a crude, and admittedly unbecoming act of disengagement

                Please accept my apologies for my rudeness

                This discussion isn’t heading towards any sort of mutual agreement, understanding, or knowledge sharing, so let’s end it and move onto more interesting things

                all the best to you
