作为通识教育的逻辑课是有害的

I am very good with logic, but I think it is harmful to make logic a standard training for the developing mind. It mostly narrows the developing mind due to the linear nature of  logic. But this isn't the worst part of it. The worst part of it is, it trains the mind to identify with the rigid concepts in the chain of reasoning while be blind to the void between those concepts.  Those voids are often more essential in understanding reality as I pointed out in one of my earlier posts. Understanding those voids requires perception but logic.

• 你说的这个理念是西方思想在充分和深刻认识逻辑之后的对人性的回归。楼上说的是中国人在思想上还没真正认识逻辑这个重要的概念。 -小二哥李白- ♂ (0 bytes) () 01/20/2023 postreply 23:33:29

• 西方的博雅教育：文法，修辞，辩证（逻辑）算术，几何，天文，音乐。结合的很好。孔子也讲过音乐的，荀子的文字也有音乐篇。 -applebee3- ♀ (0 bytes) () 01/21/2023 postreply 09:02:59

• 请见【阮松】“西方的非形式逻辑运动与我国逻辑学的走向”。你讲的这个问题，也在其中。这事儿相当复杂。呵呵。 -dhyang_wxc- ♂ (643 bytes) () 01/21/2023 postreply 15:57:16

• 诸子早已经注意到了形式逻辑的问题。老庄孔孟用的就是非形式逻辑，而且非常严格，前后一贯。可惜现在没几个人懂。 -dhyang_wxc- ♂ (0 bytes) () 01/21/2023 postreply 16:16:38

• 赞你。但这段话和逻辑课的危险相似：本身没毛病，容易被机械僵化地理解。 -stonebench- ♂ (0 bytes) () 01/22/2023 postreply 08:20:05
