Home-School Solution for Education
Logic & Analysis in Western Culture
by Jon Rappoport
April 2, 2017
Over the last 40 years, the assault on Western culture and civilization has taken people so far away from lucid thinking and logic, they don’t even know this discipline exists at all.
What has replaced it is entertainment.
It seems that hundreds of gimmicks and machines are now necessary, in order to keep the attention of children in school. There is a fear that without these “up-to-date” items, the kids will drop into a coma or walk out of the classroom.
Well, entertainment has an interesting side effect. It enables humans to jump quickly from one moment to another, leaving the last moment in the dust, forgotten. In other words, all-pervasive entertainment contributes mightily to short attention spans.
I’ve encountered this phenomenon as a lecturer. Standing at the podium, I’ve seen light bulbs of discovery go off above people’s heads as I explain the specifics of medical fraud.
And then, an hour later, standing in the lobby, surrounded by audience members, I’ve heard these same newly enlightened people ask questions that reveal they’d heard nothing of what I’d just said inside the hall.
Ah, but they had heard it. It was illuminating, to be sure, but it was also entertainment—as far as they were concerned. Therefore, they could shrug it off and kick it to the floor under their chairs and forget it.
Why do people opt for entertainment rather than education?
Because they have no mental foundation to which they can attach new learning. It isn’t there.
Yes, learning to read and write and do math are basics—but there is another basic that has been expunged from our curriculum: logic. Most people in America don’t even recognize logic is a body of knowledge in the same way that biology, geology, physics, and chemistry are.
Astonishing, when you realize that learning has to be hooked to the star of logic, so it can flourish.
When Plato began writing his Dialogues 2400 years ago, he was bringing to light, for the first time in recorded history, a version of logic. He apparently learned about these matters from his teacher, Socrates, and he passed the knowledge on to his pupil, Aristotle—who, in turn, created a foundation for what we now know as science.
One can trace the development (and repression) of logic all the way up through Western thought, to the present—where, in high schools, it arouses almost zero interest.
It’s now fashionable to discard logic, just as it is fashionable to grant universal “equality” to all opinions, no matter how ridiculous and unintelligible they are.
When the foundation is gone, the house collapses.
So I am about re-building the foundation and the house.
Some of you have asked me for a syllabus of my Logic and Analysis course. Here it is.
* The course is taught in 18 class sessions.
* The first two sessions are filled with short examples of logical fallacies.
* The third and fourth sessions examine slightly longer passages of text that contain multiple logical errors.
* Sessions five through 16 take up, in great depth, long passages that read like newspaper articles, political statements, PR, and internet journalism. Students learn how to identify and explain, in specific terms, the logical flaws these passages contain.
* Sessions 17 and 18 are the final exam and the teacher’s dissection of the exam.
* The teacher’s manual and an accompanying audios lay out each session’s lesson plan. The lesson plans include my explanations of the passages and the errors they illustrate.
Logic and Analysis is designed to give students something they’ll never forget, something they’ll use for the rest of their lives.
It represents a step in the process of restoring the kind of education that once existed and disappeared many generations ago.
I was previously selling the Logic and Analysis course separately. It is now being sold as a module within my Matrix Revealed collection, and, as a result, at a discount.
Here are the contents of The Matrix Revealed:
* 250 megabytes of information.
* Over 1100 pages of text.
* Ten and a half hours of audio.
The 2 bonuses alone are rather extraordinary:
* My complete 18-lesson course, Logic and Analysis, which includes the teacher’s manual and audio to guide you. I was previously selling the course for $375. This is a new way to teach logic, the subject that has been missing from schools for decades.
* The complete text (331 pages) of AIDS INC., the book that exposed a conspiracy of scientific fraud deep within the medical research establishment. The book has become a sought-after item, since its publication in 1988. It contains material about viruses, medical testing, and the invention of disease that is, now and in the future, vital to our understanding of phony epidemics arising in our midst. I assure you, the revelations in the book will surprise you; they cut much deeper and are more subtle than “virus made in a lab” scenarios.
The heart and soul of this product are the text interviews I conducted with Matrix-insiders, who have first-hand knowledge of how the major illusions of our world are put together:
* ELLIS MEDAVOY, master of PR, propaganda, and deception, who worked for key controllers in the medical and political arenas. 28 interviews, 290 pages.
* JACK TRUE, the most creative hypnotherapist on the face of the planet. Jack’s anti-Matrix understanding of the mind and how to liberate it is unparalleled. His insights are unique, staggering. 43 interviews, 320 pages.
* RICHARD BELL, financial analyst and trader, whose profound grasp of market manipulation and economic-rigging is formidable, to say the least. 16 interviews, 132 pages.
Also included:
* Several more interviews with brilliant analysts of the Matrix. 53 pages.
* The ten and a half hours of mp3 audio are my solo presentation, based on these interviews and my own research. Title: The Multi-Dimensional Planetary Chessboard—The Matrix vs. the Un-Conditioning of the Individual.
(All the material is digital. Upon ordering it, you’ll receive an email with a link to it.)
Understanding Matrix is also understanding your capacity and power, and that is the way to approach this subject. Because liberation is the goal. And liberation has no limit.
I invite you to a new exploration and a great adventure.

Another good topic and a vital one, too. I find that some of the problems with video are that the action or whatever is being conveyed goes too fast. Good points might not get noticed and you don’t have the time to digest it or dwell on it. TV does not have a pause button. A book or text can allow you to stop or re-read or ponder. It gives you time to digest an idea or concept.
A class room allows for too much distraction, and the sheer boredom can cause your mind to wander and lose concentration. Peer pressure might distract rather than help. Your always under the eye of an audience. Home schooling is far superior by leaps and bounds.
As well, the more you experience learning and elevated understanding, you grow hungrier for more as curiosity suddenly becomes more hungry and aroused. It can even become addictive and have quite the appetite, Learning becomes exciting and the desire is to solve things unsolved. But to get it started, one has to begin with incentive, like mom and dad delivering the teaching Japanese kids to play the violin, Dr. Suzuki found that kids learned best when the parents taught by example, and started with simple easy tunes and doing them to perfection before learning another tune or more difficult songs to play. Glad you aim for home schooling. I note that Ron Paul was also promoting a home school package a year or two back.
It really is the only solution, but with both parents working and governments like the US increasing surveillance of Home school regimen and activities, the danger draws ever closer that they will either stop home schooling or take kids away from parents. I see that is a really big possibility. Teach kids to be quiet about they think. Its dangerous for them to express ideas that conflict with the brutal police state doctrine and rhetoric. So disagree in thought, but not in word. The status quo fears thoughts more than guns. FACT!
I’m betting that logic is downplayed in schools on purpose.
So this would be excellent for people going to regular schools as well as Homeschoolers.
What a great product and service to empower and turn it all around.
I took Logic 101 in college. It isn’t a required minor for engineers. I took it as an elective and I loved the course. Got an A. Needless to say, for years I went through the process of weeding out bad ideas and contradictory thoughts. Logic gives truth a structure.
This isn’t taught to science professionals. Is it no wonder why so much that passes for scientific is not logical? Tons of money is spent on science looking in all the wrong directions.
Logic forces me to keep asking how does a new idea fit with other truths. It leaves a void of unanswered questions until I get to the kernel. It forces me to be alert to ways of thinking I haven’t examined before. It changes my point of view from ego to truth as the highest good.
I’m not sure how much more I can learn from Jon’s materials. But I doubt it will disappoint.
