Transition from child to adult

and...
Adults know better than to preach to others !

---You mean like what you're preaching now.

We all preach in one way or another. How else can we express our thoughts, our insights, our contributions?

Perhaps adults do it by rational debate, rather than using the mesmerizing infantile "word magic" of so called "holy books" as their starting point.

Adults build, not tear down.

Adults act responsibly

Adults have passion and compassion

Adults fix what needs fixing

Adults compromise when necessary

Adults respect nature

Adults don't take unnecessary chances

Adults learn by doing>>

Some do, some don't. Depends on their behavior conditioning and basic instincts.
