Can education make you ignorant?

"The thought processes of preschool children . . . . tend to be that:
  • inanimate objects are alive and have feelings and motives
  • events have a magical element
  • everything has a purpose" [1: page 34]
How did adults become so ignorant?

""I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven." Matthew (18:3)
