The reason for teaching a particular philosophy ablut blindness is not
that it's the philosophy of a particular organization, but because it
tends to breed success in solving the problems of blindness and achieving
personal goals.  I'm sure that when these veterans were men and women in
uniform, they were taught a definite philosophy of war--such as duty, the
importance of teamwork, etc.--as part of their training--not because the
armed forces are in the philosophy business, but because the whole point
of their training is for the trainees to be successful in an armed
conflict.  So why would it not be logical to teach them a philosophy
designed to produce similarly successful results in managing their
blindness?  Just a thought.
