Thank you, but I can look up the definition. I was hoping to gain insight from your opinion as to how it applies to voluntarism and the philosophy/goals of an education system. As far as I can tell your reasoning is as follows:

1. The goal of an education system is to teach children to be critical thinkers.

2. If children become critical thinkers they will all believe in a the principles of "voluntarism" and will then become ungovernable.

Is this right?

The goal of an education system must be to teach people how to educate themselves, for learning is a lifelong task.

And „believe“ is the wrong word. It is the ultimate logical conclusion once you have patiently followed the logical thread of ethics from first principles to framework.
