One may disagree that education can truly guide an individual's behavior so dramatically. Yet one can merely use a simple analogy to quell such disagreement. Imagine that a student has been assigned a math problem. A well-educated student, who clearly comprehends all the mathematical concepts required to solve the problem and understands and can carry out the appropriate calculations to reach a solution, will undoubtedly solve the problem. Such a student has a firm grasp of the necessary knowledge required to solve their problem. So it is with a well-educated individual who must face many of life's decisions. A person who has been well educated and understands the required social and moral concepts will undoubtedly reach the correct conclusion and so will choose to act in the socially positive manner. Their understanding will inevitably guide them towards what is socially correct. The mathematical analogy can also be extended to encompass and illustrate the goals of legal doctrines as well. What if the student does not understand the required concepts needed to solve the problem and so chooses merely to memorize the answers and calculations so that they will score well on an exam? Such a student will have no understanding or education. Though they will be able to achieve a good score they will understand nothing of what they have done. They will not have analyzed and understood the problem and having merely followed a written example to convince others that they have...
