This authority as Ideal, may be exterior to the true
condition on the ground, such as the homeless problem
contradicts the pronunciations, of the politicians and the
media. For the TC, education is based as much if not
more, on true experience as the abstract knowledge of
books, films and instruction. Abstract knowledge can give
one a broad diversification of learning not possible in
one's personal experience. But only by personal and
objective experience, can knowledge be tested for validity,
which assumes that things like qualities of human nature
are universal. Thus it may be assumed that a character
out of a Tolstoy novel, can be observed in a present
reality, if a given individual shares the same set of
fundamental circumstances. Because natural and social,
cultural political circumstance, affects one's life
intellectually, emotionally and psychologically, the TC
becomes versed in the dynamics of these circumstance as
an honest understanding of a sought after true reality.
The TC understands that children will accept the
premises of adults without necessarily question, based
upon emotional criterion as opposed to independent
reasoning, which they may or may not possess a capacity.
The TC does not indoctrinate as unfair advantage of the
strong over the weak. The TC teaches by the expression
of the various viewpoints, even though children prefer a
simple black and white explanation.
The True Conservative may be Ethical as distinct from
Moral. Ethics in general is described here as an attitude
wherein the pre-existent state is considered of greater
consequence than alternatives to it, even though loyalty to
this state may not necessarily be of benefit. Prohibitions
are practiced wherever applicable.
