Logic should be taught at a younger age

Logic is a step by step process that we as humans can apply to any situation to try and discover the truth. The process of logic can be learned and refined through a teachable lesson. "Critical thinking, intuition, deduction are all subconscious processes that cant be taught directly." this claim is not the same as the logical process I'm referring to. My claim is stating that the sooner that humans understand the process of logic and how to accurately utilize it, the sooner they can apply the process to anything in their lives and find the truth behind whatever it is they apply it to. Your examples are simply the way we think and reason from experience, not the literal process of logic. You mention that deducing facts and critical analysis can be advised on, yet say those things aren't standardized to which I would disagree. The process of breaking down data or a statement can be consistently reproduced, this is exactly what we base our facts of life and laws of nature on. If the logical process was inconsistent the field of science would be vastly different. Qualia is the subject experience that each individual has but through deduction, we can find the truth behind the experience. Your sense of red and blue and my sense of those colors may be different but we can agree that they are uniquely separate from one another and when combined they form something different. Eventually, we would reach the same conclusion of what those colors are, even though our experience of the colors may be different (this is the mind-body sensation problem but that's beside the point). The example I just used can be applied toward anything and that process is essentially what the scientific method does through repeated test to draw similar conclusions. If A=B and B=C the only logical conclusion is that A=C. There can be no other interpretation that is true, assuming the premises are also true. Your ant example seems flawed because the logic that ants always walk in a straight line, therefore ants must have brains is not deductive but rather inductive. Using assumptions based on experience is not logical deduction. Ants walking in a similar straight line does not necessarily mean they are memorizing their path, but as you later pointed out they send scouts to lead the way. I disagree with your claim that you cannot teach someone how to understand nature, could elaborate on why you don't think it's possible? I'm also confused when you wrote " it would be like trying to teach someone how to feel the exact same emotion of the exact same magnitude and intensity as you did when you stubbed your toe on the leg of a table 5 years ago, you can advise a person on how to think logically however because there is no correct way of using logic ". Could you explain in more detail? From what I understand you are saying that because logic is a tool we use to find truth, and because tools have no true way of being used, then logic cannot be used to describe the sensation you felt when stubbing your toe? Truth needs to be able to be recreated and consistent in order for it to to be true. The literal sensation of stubbing your toe cannot be shared by others in the same way it was to you, but the process of stubbing your toe can still be tested by others and repeated. If it is repeated, and the outcome is consistent, then the sensation you felt was probably true. If you cannot repeat something or the results are inconsistent, then whatever it is you are testing cannot be considered true. Contradictions and exaggerations are not possible when finding truth. If you have any contradictions or exaggerations in a claim, it cannot be entirely true. "The circle had 4 sides", this claim cannot be true based on our knowledge of circles. "My dad is the strongest man in the world", while not necessarily false, this claim would need to be researched in order for it to be truthful. Just because we use these methods to make communicating more interesting, doesn't mean they are truthful. Rhyming doesn't change the outcome, it just compares words that sound alike. Logic deals with the truth and human language can manipulate the truth to sound better, these things are not one in the same.
