Hmm... an interesting point. It kind of reminds me of school. ``Nearly"
everybody considers history to be a boring subject and study it only for
the
sake of doing so. The truth is history is one of the most important
subjects
as it teaches you to appreciate the glories of the past and makes you aware
of the mistakes made and urges you not to repeat them.
Well its no great secret that majority of the people find philosphy and
ethics boring and making them understand is no easy task. For a simple
reason people just don't care. An idea can only be ``sold" to most of them
if they are convinced of practical benefit, this is too a fact.
Communication is a very important skill when you want to put your idea
across. The point is not whether to teach history or phill. or not but
how you teach them and get them 'involved'. Encouraging words always
work better than reprimands. :)
