Those misinformed, or
filled with misinformation about their histories, ancestral
contributions and intellectual possibilities do not have a free will
based on the action to think, they have an imprisoned will based on
what others think. |
If one isn’t taught
about intellectual and emotional reasoning then how can they be
responsible for it? If one isn’t trained in manners, hygiene,
culture, or to walk, talk, etc. how can they be aware of the reasons
they should behave one way or another? Yet people are held
responsible for their own thinking and reasoning. People are
considered by government, law and psychology and science to have a
free will. |
IF ONE ISN'T
TAUGHT ABOUT INTELLECTUAL AND EMOTIONAL
REASONING,
THEN HOW CAN THEY BE RESPONSIBLE FOR IT? |
Dr. Wornie L. Reed,
wrote a paper called The Role of the Media for the Trotter Review,
February 1990, Trotter Institute, U-Mass Boston. In that paper Dr.
Reed explained "The media are generally seen as functioning as an
agency of socialization in two ways. On one hand, media reinforces
existing values and attitudes. For example, attitudes a person may
have regarding another racial group are reinforced when similar
values and attitudes are expressed in the media, implicitly as Ill
as explicitly. On the other hand media may function as a source of
norms and values. In other words, the media may provide the initial
definitions of social phenomena."
One student argued, "Where local cultures offer no solid guide for
what is good or bad in a particular situation, the media may reach a
person directly and carry heavy Iight in such a value definition."

The free will is
considered to be a single action, a single basic choice to think or
not to think.
While this freedom
is the premise that founds American society, those misinformed, or
filled with misinformation about their histories, ancestral
contributions and intellectual possibilities do not have a free will
based on the action to think, they have an imprisoned will based on
what others think. These people can only make day-to-day life
decisions without the benefit of understanding their own
significance or self-worth.
The
context of this information alone shows the importance of timely,
reliable access to information by knowledge workers. Knowledge
workers are the new problem solving experts in “Rise of the Creative
Class” written by professor Richard Florida. Florida defines
problem-solving experts as “people who engage in creative problem
solving, by drawing on complex bodies of knowledge to solve specific
problems.” |
