Questionable?

How important is learning? How important is knowledge? Are learning and knowledge intertwined? Can I learn apart from growing in knowledge? Is being educated the same as knowing a lot? Is it equal to being learned? What's the most important type of knowledge? How are learning and education addressing the need for such knowledge?


Mark 12:6
Jesus tells a story, and near the end of the story he speaks from the mind of the owner, saying, "He had one left to send, a son, whom he loved. He sent him last of all, saying, 'They will respect my son.'" Was the owner wrong? The owner obviously didn't have all of the information because they didn't respect his son....they killed him? At some point, yes, every knee will bow, but even in the story that doesn't happen...the evil tenants are slaughtered...and that's it.





Chewing on this in the back of my mind for a while
Mark 10:32
"They were on their way up to Jerusalem, with Jesus leading the way, and the disciples were astonished, while those who followed were afraid."
