Knowledge Question

To What Extend do Higher Institutions of Education (reason) Shape the Credibility of Our Knowledge? (in other words, to what extend do we need colleges or universities to obtain the knowledge we need for our careers?)

Which way of knowing is MOST important in economics? //is this the same for all human sciences?

Language, Sense Perception, Reason, Emotion, Imagination, Memory, Intuition, Faith are the ways of knowing. I believe the most important way of knowing is reason. All other ways of knowing are subjective, and depend on the person's chapter which shapes his or her imagination, perception, faith, etc. But reason is one of the few ways of knowing where the person has to follow a logical process of thinking related to the subject and derive a conclusion which becomes the answer to the problem (meaning its not entirely dependent on the personality or preferencesof theperson). Economics is the study that involves looking closely at how small business (microeconomics), or even how a country as a whole (macro economics) deals financially related directly to the relation of supply and demand. Therefore, an analytical logic is needed for practicing economics, making reason the most important way of knowing for economics. Even looking at other areas of human sciences (such as phycology, law, education, etc.) reason seems to be the most important element. This is because other areas of human sciences as well as economies require logical conclusions to be enable us to reflect and even predict situations in the different areas, so reason is qualified to be the most important way of knowing for all types human sciences.
