Good Morning All;
I hope all is well in your little corner of reality.
I know I am way far behind- I promise to try to keep up better. I have had the need to be more involved at the pancreatitis group that I am part of. I shall post a note about that after this...
I found this within an email from About.com.
Quote of the week:
"The search for the truth is an important search, and if it isn't, we're lost in all kinds of ways.
- We're lost in the fields of Holocaust denial.
- We're lost in being able to compare what is good and what is bad because we can't agree what actually happened.
- We're lost when it comes to guarding minorities against populist agitation.
Nobody's going to die from saying Shakespeare wasn't Shakespeare, but in other areas, when the truth suffers, our [own] decision making suffers.
When there is no authority to the truth, prejudices thrive."
D. Aaronovitch

I understand the quotation.
What I don't understand is why it had to be penned in the first place.
What do you think?
-Are we truly that prejudiced against our fellow human beings?
-Are we that narrow?
-Are we that stupid?
-Are we that blind?
-Are we that cold?
-What else may have suffered along the way?
-Whom has suffered?
-When will it [ever?] be enough?
I believe your answers may make my heart sad.
Have a 'wunnaful' day
Love to all.
XOXO
Me
