Indoctrination: the process of teaching a person or group to accept a set of beliefs uncritically; as Wikipedia says "the precise boundary between education and indoctrination often lies in the eye of the beholder. Some distinguish indoctrination from education on the basis that the indoctrinated person is expected not to question or critically examine the doctrine they have learned. As such the term may be used pejoratively or as a buzz word, often in the context of political opinions, theology, religious dogma or anti-religious convictions".…I think a few good examples of an indoctrination process are PFAL , as well as the other classes and the various training programs like the way corps, WOW, and others.
Critical thinking: the objective analysis of facts to form a judgment. The process generally includes the rational, skeptical, unbiased analysis or evaluation of factual evidence. Critical thinking is akin to the scientific method , which is comprised of various techniques for investigating phenomena, acquiring new knowledge, or correcting and integrating previous knowledge, and is based on empirical or measurable evidence subject to specific principles of reasoning. Perhaps much of the scientific method could be summarized as a disciplined analysis through observation and experimentation. Grease Spot Café has many good examples of folks who have observed and experienced the enormous amount of falsehoods, lies, deception, manipulation, coercion, and destruction in anything that The Way International has ever had to offer.
PFAL is a big sedative…an insidious process to get students to let down their guard and absorb the lies of a con artist with intentions to plunder the lives of followers…PFAL it’s like roofies for the soul.
