Anybody can memorize what somebody told them to think. Thats what we call good brainwashing. The real thinkers like to create holes in their so called "logic". Which ultimately usually ends with science brehs admitting they are just parroting other mens guesses about creation and life. Or they will just commit to being a parrot![]()
How did you learn how to fish, hunt, solve problems? Unless you want to constantly reinvent the wheel, you are going to have to know those 'guesses' of other men or/and parrot.
There is nothing wrong with memorizing facts though. There is something wrong with you if you memorize facts just to look smart.
