Today's society is too dumb to grasp philosophy. It's too far gone. It's too late.

I don't necessarily disagree, but I don't think it would be nearly as efficient as you think. I had philosophy classes in high school, 8 hours a week, that didn't do much for many of my classmates.

I think critical thinking would be much better. Give them dumped down law texts and make them write or find loop holes or edge cases.

Philosophy is 90% wishy washy ramblings which have no practical application. Worldviews are formed and life is learned about through experience, not in the classroom.

You're misunderstanding philosophy. It's not necessarily the idea to form a ruleset for practical application. It's mostly just trying to understand and explain the human condition.

as someone who has been taught philosophy and logic in school i can say that this makes no sense. theres barely anything that some dude 2000 years ago can say to help you today

Stoicism is as relevant as ever. And as far as I can tell, that Christianity-Thing is still somewhat known in large parts of the world.

yes, but why would i need to have a class to teach me about something i got taught by everyone around me. and why should Aristotle tell me what to think when i could just figure it out myself

What needs taught in school: - Don't be violent - Don't trash the place - Do 70% of the work without cheating.
