SPELL WELL-BUT WRITE WELL
MORE FREQUENTLY!!
(WRITTEN December 15, 2008)
(UNEDITED, UNABRIDGED)
The American
education has taught it’s students that writing is a chore to be done for the
purpose of spelling, sentence structure, syntax, etc instead for the powerful
primary purpose of communication that add to the journals of human progress.
This much too long sentence is to communicate that there are too few Americans,
who finish college and do not take their ability to write as a powerful tool to
affect the progress of the civilization in which they live. Therefore, they
spend far too much time in editing the writing of those who do try to
communicate thoughts and knowledge to others.
This is the tragedy of the present
many college graduates who do not write anything accept that which they cannot
avoid. Remember you do best what you do most! If you look at the comments made
on the letters, writing, and bloggs you will notice that there are far to many
spelling and sentience corrections than there are new ideas added to the
commentaries. This basic notion that any submission made to the public is for
the purpose of being totally correct is missing the purpose of their education.
It also cuts the public off from the commerce of many, many more minds’
Yes,
we should always try to be correct in writing and spelling, but it is easy to
see that an idea is much more important than the 100 per correct spelling that
we may not be able to do. Maybe you can empathize with a person who cannot
really spell but can reason right readily from one point to another?? We spend
for too much time in spelling bees compared to bee of reasoning!! If you cannot
spell wouldn't it be more useful to spend your time reasoning than to spend the
rest of your life learning to spell without making a contribution of any
merit?? Did you realize that Einstein could not spell that in a dissertation
you are allowed at least one error per page in a 100-page paper??
The
Joe Six Pack and the thinking public needs to know what you may be thinking
more than what you may be spelling correctly!!
