There is a philosophy!

Sociology helps you to think for yourself

The Sociological Perspective

• Society and culture control our behaviour and our ideas.
• Sociology is the study of culture and society.
• Sociology should aim to be analytical and value free.
• Common sense is a cover-up for ignorance and lack of understanding of how our society and culture work.

Our aims for students

Learning is a lifelong process and should take place at all times and in all places.

• We aim to help you learn how to learn.
• We will help you to take responsibility for your own learning.
• This does not mean that you are on your own, we will offer you all the support that you need.

Why must you learn to think for yourself?

You must learn to think for yourself because if you do not, you will forever be a tool in the hands of the unscrupulous and the foolish.

You will cast your first born child into the fires that burn to Moloch.

You will climb carefully and walk slowly into the waiting heavy machine guns of the Somme.

You will watch the busloads of sick be taken to be killed because they are not good enough to live among you.

You will murder six million Jews and assorted homosexuals and communists.

You will create a bomb that melts flesh, while you watch people starve.

Daily you will burn and pollute the planet that sustains you.

And you will never ask why you did it.
