Listen ""Blind obedience to authority is the greatest enemy of truth." Teach Different with Albert Einstein - Authority"
Episode Synopsis
How do I know when to follow authority and when to think for myself?
Being told what to do is comforting. We don’t have to think. All we have to do is stop asking questions and follow along. With the burden of thinking for ourselves lifted, we are in a sense liberated from moral responsibility and the inherent risks that come from making our own decisions. Blindly following authority gives us the truth we need and it is sometimes the best path to take. Yet, when blind obedience to authority overpowers our moral conscience and leads us into bad decisions, it can harm us personally and lead to human catastrophes on a grand scale.
Join Steve and Dan Fouts – founders of Teach Different and twin brothers with over 50 years of teaching experience – along with Laurie Pasler, CEO of Descendants Media Group Inc. - as they discuss the delicate art of knowing when to follow authority, enriched by the Teach Different Method.
