In reply to:I'll admit that I straightaway interpreted the bumper sticker text as meaning something like "the truly educated are those who never stop learning"
Which is why I went postal on our poor pacifist padre. The meaning is so obviously that which you give above, and yet prescriptivism demands that its slaves pretend not to see the meaning because of perceived infractions of "the rules". Gnats and camels, methinks.
