    Is logical thought teachable though?

    I should definitely think so. I would that history would show that, as well. Ideas and suspicion/critical thinking seem like they can possibly be inherent, but they could definitely use some help/a boost in some individuals where it seems to lie dormant. 😅 And the earlier in life we awaken these abstract ideas and thoughts that not everything you see and hear is truth, the more natural it will become. Just like anything else you want to teach your children. And teaching people to teach themselves is one thing I think is omitted in school. Actively practicing and explicitly focusing on how to effectively teach yourself something. Studying Study Techniques. It’s an important skill.
