God, I should stop with these titles.

Anyway, has there been something you learnt that is obviously wrong, yet they teach anyway at school?

One of the the things I "learned" in PE is that BMI is supposed to indicate if you're healthy or not. I call BS.

Another thing: Thomas Edison. I don't care about how open I am about this, but I absolutely despise my school for thinking Thomas Edison was a hero. In actuality, he's a freaking thief. That's right: all those 1,000+ patents mean nothing.

...I aplogize. Anyway, back to the question.

"Columbus discovered America"

Vikings got to North America ~400 years before him, and the people who became the Native Americans ~10,000-30,000 years before them.

Columbus Day is just an excuse to have a dat off....not that I or anyone will say no to a free day off

My personal favourites are all those spelling "rules" that only actually apply to like half of the words in the English language.

As a side note, the fact there are still people today who think Edison had anything on Tesla saddens me.

Just asking: Are you against my beliefs?

God no! Edison was a fraud and a sham and deserves a mere fraction of the success and recognition he obtained.
