The old professor mused aloud, half to himself: “Why don’t they teach
logic at these schools?”
That line came from the great children’s classic and Christian allegory
, The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. The fictional professor’s lament (
about two siblings’ confusion about which of two stories to believe),
written some 60 years ago, still applies today. Along with logic, basic
