You are always free to have your opinions and never apologize for those, it ain't the digital goolag (yet) here .

You will note that the same scientifics who benefits among those of the intentional release of covid to frame china, steal the election from trump, assure massive bail outs and foster the forced vaccination agendas - never mention the natural immune system, clean and healthy life style (sleep, hydratation, gmo and pesticides and toxin free food, nor moderate physical exercize)... why? Could it be that they ain't educated "enough" and prefer to submit to a commercial agenda making the pharma industry the biggest lobbying group in D.C. as the great Potus Trump said to us? Nor to they speak about the intentionnally designed so called medical drugs to create side effects which will lead to more medical drugs...

Neolithic people could eat mammoth .
Education, or conditional/behavioral training is a key component of the slave mentality... (if those building the pyramids had say stop, they had already rocks, tools and the fitness to fight their guards)
Noo... because he or she is a Dogie ! Try the same with a wild wolf... raise your pawn... try it... This is the wild, vs the educated.

A good example about education unable to change reality... is it possible to travel at speed faster than light? if it is, it is. if it isn't, it isn't... the nature of mathematics...

in one apple how many trees? depends on the number of years you have for the seeds in the apple to grow .

Apologies if I've misinterpreted your post, but I'd disagree. It can and does change reality, all the time. Take the recent news of the potential Covid19 vaccine. The scientists who devised and tested the vaccine have years of education behind them, starting with basic maths, biology, chemistry, statistics, and have built on this foundation to discover and prove new information, which can then be used to educate in turn. This is how science progresses. Have theory, test theory, document findings. Repeat. Science advances, technology advances, society advances, the world changes. If this was based on lies, no, it wouldn't be useful.

I'd also take issue with your three examples:
1. Neolithic people couldn't build cathedrals, medieval people could. Because, over generations, they had learned how to do so, and that education had been passed on.
2. Slaves do as they are told, regardless of personal belief or education.
3. Because he has learned that the action evokes a positive response.

The Cathedral builders of Europe may not have know that the Earth was round... and still could build big structure.

The slaves of the pharaons building pyramids may have believed that the afterlife was as the priests told.

A Dog may raise his pawn because he likes to please you.

Sadly education can't change "reality"...
