My wish as always is for you to have a Happy Monday.
"You don't have to know all the intricacies of how a car engine operate but it should be enough for you that when you put the key in the ignition the engine turns and you are able to drive the car ."
I have heard that statement often and I have come to the conclusion that it is a very silly answer to give to an inquisitive mind. It is a response that indicates I do not know the answer and I have no idea where to find the answer. This also is a nice way to say just accept what you are told and do not ask questions.
The above quote maybe will be accepted by a primary school teacher but would not go down very well with auto mechanic students. The teacher who does not encourage questions in the class room leaves the students to find answers outside of the classroom.
We are living in a world that we had hoped had reached a point where we can tolerate differences. Unfortunately our differences may ultimately become our destruction because race,religion and politics continue to divide us and the innocent are losing their lives.
We can either be tolerant of each other as human beings or have the United Nations formulate a standard to which persons who think that they are superior must subscribe, or formulate tests and examinations that these person must pass. However 100% of those considered inferior must fail the tests and exams . It should not be in a country that a person's value is based on the color of his skin. The USA continue to provide entertainment because persons who will never qualify for the highest offices sit in a corner twiddling their thumbs knowing they will never achieve the standards of those they consider inferior.
The gods does not cater for any competition and so encourages the destruction of the followers of other gods. It is man who fight the battles of the gods because the gods look on and give to man their commands. Man find it necessary to demonstrate the superiority of his god and this is demonstrated in the destruction of his fellow man. There now rises a problem because with the advent of mass killing by way of suicide bombing and other means of mass destruction the god are not selective of who dies. This will ultimately provide a problem for the gods because their own are being destroyed along with the enemies. It is because of this that the very thing that should draw followers to the gods becoming a deterrent from following the gods.
We live in a world where a country having an undisputed leader is discouraged. The citizens of a country should determine their leaders and the most popular person with the people should be the leader. Alongside this concept is encouraged divergence of ideologies and these ideologies provide checks and balances in government. This entrenches and encourages factions and divisiveness among the citizens of countries. This we are told is healthy for democracy
Here is the world in which we live today, we live in a world where those who twiddle their thumbs look on their superiors and continue the centuries old claim that the color of their skin make them supreme. Instead of allowing the gods to fight their own wars to determine which god is superior, mankind continue destroying each other in the name of the gods and religion. Some who are seeking political office capitalize on the belief of some that claim they are supreme because of skin color while seeking to banish the gods.These politicians advocate ideologies while knowing other will oppose their ideologies.
The uninitiated and ignorant are asking questions and the teachers continue to give the answer that you don't have to understand how a car engine operates, be content with knowing that when you turn the key in the ignition the engine starts.
We are living in a crazy world and the ones who should be giving answers have not the slightest clue as to what is happening and so the people are scared but they are being told don't worry.
