Wrong. Power attracts the corruptible. Corruptible people do not seek knowledge they seek wealth and power. Knowledge is being able to figure out what is best for you as an individual in a world ruled by corrupt people.

in spite of what the PHD's think....knowledge doesnt mean smart...it means you went to school and learned a lot about a little. I/E discovering DNA, but can't tie your own shoes.IQ makes you smart, and that cant be taught anywhere !

Yes and no. Knowledge is power and every human being has the birth right of attaining the knowledge they seek. It's when certain people decide that others are not fit for knowledge and hoard it and keep it in secrecy is when corruption occurs. There is a difference between self empowerment and power and control over others.

^ LOL. Fricken slave runners. Keep thinking and feeling. Stop escaping. The one who promotes that you get blissed out is the one who either is too lazy to obtain knowledge or who wants to hoard it from you.

Knowledge is power, power may lead to corruption if you are a corrupted person. However, you could always use your power for the good of humanity.

2^ My point was, a person can get knowledge, that knowledge gives power. No matter what, one can always get knowledge then use the power that comes from that knowledge.MERRY CHRISTMAS !

Knowledge is power. It is up to you how you use the power. Use it to help, rather than to hurt. Use it as a light to shine to help others rather than a light to uncover their shortcomings. It is up to you. Be a beacon to help show others that it can be done. I love your post.

Is this a test?

The old adage about power corrupting was taken out of context. It is not power that corrupts, but positions of domination over other people. If "all power leads to corruption," then we would necessarily all be corrupt, for it takes power to feed yourself. It takes a lot of power nowadays to feed yourself well.
