The general definitions and terminology for illiteracy vary depending on their orientation to specific subject areas. Most people assume illiteracy pertains solely to those with the inability to read or write. However, those suffering from learning, cultural and scientific illiteracy are a different group all together. The coming generation of illiterate adults will be those who cannot unlearn, deschool or deprogram themselves from conventional thinking; It will be those who cannot free themselves from mainstream opinions and thought processes that require individuals to think outside the box or get rid of the box entirely.

Many conventional thinkers have problems letting go of the perceived reality they’ve set up for themselves to understand the world, regardless of its harm to themselves or others. We can no longer cast blame on controlling mechanisms in institutions or corporate culture which dictate our behavior on a daily basis. At some point, we must realize that every person is responsible for their own awareness regardless of what they have been taught by others.

IQ, college and university degrees, and actually all mainstream education only accounts for a small portion of a person’s success, and with higher education leading most graduates to minimum-wage employment, that portion is only decreasing every year. By far the majority of a person’s success is attributable to social well-being, emotional intelligence, and the ability to foster hope. In fact, according to a three-year longitudinal study out of the University of Manchester, hope “uniquely predicts objective academic achievement”, trumping general intelligence, previous academic achievement and personality.
