[IBC] Odd distinctions
Hi Sean,
----- Original Message ----- From: "Sean Nemecek" snip They're two parts of process and the practice is the most important, by far. snip Yes they are two parts of the process. However, one cannot be elevated above another. Many people who are principle oriented learners, need to have the theory in order to be able to do the practice. For them theory is more important. However, it is incomplete without practice. snip Humbly, Sean Nemecek ------------------ I think that I can refute your premise by citing the following (extreme) example: If a person merely "does" (presumably as instructed) and get no theory, this person will be able to perform the skills and since this individual also has some intelligence, he/she will have come to understand many things from this practice - probably all of the theory that would otherwise have been offered. However, if a person gets theory only, no matter how long this kind of "instruction" is offered, the student will not have the capacity to "do" the work. Yes, they are both good parts of the process, but practice is simply the more important of the two. Kind regards, Andy Rutledge zone 8, Texas ************************************************** ****************************** ++++Sponsored, in part, by Evergreen Gardenworks++++ ************************************************** ****************************** -- The IBC HOME PAGE & FAQ: http://www.internetbonsaiclub.org/ -- +++++ Questions?
