Hi Walt,
I think the most dangerous thing in the world is ignorance. If a  
State teaches its citizens a narrow or biased curriculum or just  
leaves them ignorant then they can be more easily persuaded to do  
things less ignorant people would be unwilling to do.
Most conflicts would not take place if people were better and more  
widely educated IMHO.
