I doubt cushy. An black American growing up in the south Bronx, better known to the world as the fort Apache area?
Though I will admit I was paid to go to school?
Quote:I respect people's right to look for hope wherever they find it. I don;t look down on them because they believe in something not proven by science. We all do believe in nonexistent stuff, like justice or paper money.
I don't look down upon people. I'm just sadden to see the damage done to people because they and others embrace and accept a certain ignorance even when it sadistic and masochistic behavior?
Money has an intrinsic value, though it is turning to electric money, because we can exchange it for services and goods.
Justice, though rarely achieved, is a worth while goal. I think it is better then religion at holding society together and helping us keep some quasi-semblance of sanity. This last part is just an opinion.
