KNOWLEDGE IS POWER

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucy_Higgs_Nichols What an athlete has done in sports another athlete can do better, if what has previously been done becomes known. "Records are made to be broken." How true it is! Not just in spectator sports, but in many other realms of endeavor, perhaps every other, this fact is also true. Given time, knowledge and the opportunity for pursuit by enough people, prior records fall! This fact--what mankind has done another person can do better--underscores the tremendous importance of knowledge and its broadest, effectual dissemination as possible. It also explains why, conversely, education is politically allocated and information is, too ! Knowledge is power. Knowledge applied is mastery. Censorship of government documents, media news, school curriculum, church literature, are all censored to keep power in the hands of the powerful. This has nothing to do with race. Power is about the retention of power, the reinforcement of power, and the denial to others of power. And a main source is knowledge ! You shall KNOW THE TRUTH and the truth shall make you free! John 8:32.
