more to life than headlines bro

@11112011 @ins0mniak Although Ottoman madrasas had a number of different branches of study, such as calligraphic sciences, oral sciences, and intellectual sciences, they primarily served the function of an Islamic centre for spiritual learning. Often mentioned by critics that madrasas did not include a variety of natural sciences during the time of the Ottoman Empire, madrasas included curriculums that included a wide range of natural sciences. There were many well-known Muslim scholars, mathematicians, and scientists that all worked to teach high-ranking families and children of the sciences.[139] it known that "The goal of all knowledge and in particular, of the spiritual sciences is knowledge of God."[14] Religion, for the most part, determines the significance and importance of each science. As İnalcık mentions: "Those which aid religion are good and sciences like astrology are bad."[14]

@11112011 @ins0mniak same here, not sure I'd want to send my kids to public school in 2030 or whenever

@11112011 @ins0mniak jebbos madrasas often teach the trivium, classical curriculum (as in the tradition of education informed by ancient Rome and Greece -> middle ages -> British empire)

current systems have much more in common with Prussian education, to train obedient employees

@11112011 @ins0mniak it's a challenge but not insoluble. end of the day parents making their own decisions is better than the state doing it

@11112011 @ins0mniak and if I was to homeschool my kids I'd probably do it with some local like minded people, take them on lots of climbing trips etc. instead of them taking bullshit exam focussed classes

@11112011 @ins0mniak you'd finish homeschooling 16/18
