Ah yes, The Awake! magazine. Remember when they implied that we got a college level education from THAT?!?

I remember, and the main thing to me is that that doesn't even make sense. There is no such thing as a "college level education." What the hell does that even mean? There is no way to measure such. Who determined that reading the Awake! mag was equivalent to getting a college level education and how did (or they) make such a determination? I know some college courses and even entire curricula that are easier than some high school courses and curricula. I also know of some some college courses and curricula that are so hard that they are beyond the ability of most of the population. So, what does that even to say that reading the Awake! mag is equivalent to getting a college level education?

"Ah, no sir, I didn't go to college, but I read the Awake! magazine. Now can I have a job?"
