It is Wrong to Educate for Authority

Some have argued, wrongly, that The Good is Authority. The reason that Authority is not good is that an important aspect of The Good is Reason or Logos, and, an important aspect of Reason or Logos is Logic, and, Logic proves to us that an appeal to an authority is a false, fallacious way of reasoning or arguing. You see, to be logical, you cannot make arguments or statements which are fallacious or false. Since an authority, as authority, could be making statements or arguments which are false or fallacious, it follows logically, that an appeal to an authority, as such, is false or fallacious. Thus, the very idea that an authority somehow has legitimate power based on the authority of that person's office or position is false and fallacious. As they said during Vietnam and Afghanistan, "Fock authority." "Up the Republic!"
