Everyone is a hypocrite (as most would agree) and when constructing the hierarchy of education, hypocrisy will no doubt be present as humans are present. So to eliminate hypocrisy in education cannot be achieved but can unquestionably be aspired to. However, I don't know how else to portray hypocrisy in bad light when it comes to those whom are supposed to provide aid of guidance and knowledge. Hypocrisy for leaders of community or those with the responsibility to mold minds is not something I think should be incorporated in the learning process.
When you think of a hypocrite, is it with a positive denotation? I suppose one could be submissive in their conclusion as to whether hypocrisy is something to aspire to or not, but nevertheless, its absence should be maintained in regards to leaning institutions. if some one whom you are learning from is preaching one thing and yet doing another, is that the type of person from which you’d like to learn? i don’t think it can benefit learning in any way, do you?
I have answered everyone’s questions with the utmost detail that I could stockpile, and yet neglect seems to be infecting my posts. Now, will you please answer my question? How do you think hypocrisy can be beneficial? |
Hypocrisy is not beneficial. I have already stated that it is neither good nor bad.
You still have yet to describe why hypocrisy is bad. All you have done is stated that "everyone is a hypocrite", that it should not not be aspired to, and that it is not beneficial. In all these statements all you have done is assumed that hypocrisy is bad.
Please answer in one simple sentence. For example, if one were to ask me why killing of a person for no reason other than revenge is bad, I would explain it in utilitarian terms. Killing would result in the loss of happiness for the person's family and it would delete any happiness that the dead person could have had if he were alive.
So please answer my question in a similar concise manner. Why is hypocrisy bad?
