But, SO IS CRITICAL THINKING AND RESEARCHING!
I try to tell my son. "Research a subject from several angles BEFORE you go shooting your mouth off."
Now, I admit. I have ignored my own advice on occasion and had to eat my words later. Humility is also a good thing to have. So many people go off half cocked and think violence will solve things. Then, there are these sleazy, ignorant, attention whores who whip up the easily led masses into a hateful frenzy from the safety of their studios. There is a special place in their hell for them. I'm sure.
"Man seeking power is the most dangerous animal on the planet."I'm not sure who said that but it is true. One might start out with good intentions but power, money and perks corrupt quickly. Look at how many career politicians there are. NO ONE should be able to vote themselves a raise!! NO ONE! I want my politicians to punch a time clock and be accountable for their lousy work ethic. If we did that kind of slip shod, lazy ass work. We'd be fired without a golden parachute. It's bullshit.
Yet here we are. Voting, protesting and signing petitions. Does it really do any good? I'm getting a little frustrated.
Doing the right thing seems obvious and easy but governments tell us how hard and complicated it is. We're just stupid peasants.
I wonder what would happen if everyone just ignored their governments and did the right thing.
Feed the hungry, heal the sick, house the homeless, clean up environmental messes, help disaster victims and keep your religion to yourself.
The Divine Wow loves us all equally. Celebrate that in your own way and let me do it my way. Enough said.
Now, for some loving links!
