Are they then being false to themselves or are they being true to themselves? Did Will ever encounter a situation in which what he wrote made no sense due to prevailing incidents to the contrary? Who knows?

What are little boys made of? Frogs and snails and puppy dog tails" Maybe not. Both guys and gals are "nice". Both guys and gals aren't. Luck of the draw. Life is chancy. No one promised you a rose garden and if they did remember the thorns?

That's what they already plan to do to cover the trillion dollar PLUS increase in debt caused by the Commander-in-Chief's massive tax cut for the obscenely wealthy. After all that makeup for the unexpected excessive unplanned stuff will there still be social security, medicare, medicaid for those in need? Probably not but who cares? The trumpicans are all wealthy so they don't need no lousy social safety net handouts. The non-dons are the ones who will suffer which is exactly the kind of "balance" the C-I-C seeks and will orchestrate with his dying breath if it comes to that. Is everybody happy? No but the important folks are deliriously joyful and that's all that counts. Great times ahead folks! Gonna celebrate the demise of all social safety net programs that help folks you despise survive? How? Imported champagne of course. Ever try trump booze? less

I expect they will be eating turkey sandwiches on Thanksgiving because I doubt that the hordes of murderers will be there yet. Well now. Isn't that a swell place to spend a holiday? When will that particular Armageddon take place and how many will die? Whatever day it is will become another day to celebrate and commemorate our ability to slaughter immigrants at will by order of the Commander in Chief. Who by the way hasn't said diddly about the marauders since election day. You are still scared sh**less right? Of course you are. Well after we tally the dead we will know how many babies, infants, toddlers, little kids corpses there are among the women and old and infirm. A prideful thing to know how many we kill. Hopefully none of our brave soldiers will die. I wonder if the massive hordes of murderers are armed as well as our troops? I can hardly wait for the confrontation, can you too...not hardly wait? less
Do you feel good about what you accomplished? And then there is church the purpose of which is what? To make you a better person than you would have been without it? Are you?
Are the more intelligent folks the ones who crave solitude or does intelligence play no part at all and it is simply a matter of personality and how they are wired emotionally?

How do they square that with their conscience assuming they have one?

I took a sleeping pill once decades ago and stayed awake all night. So I don't take anything to sleep. Last night was one of those nights. Ever have them? How do you cope?
Some never thirst for anything. So they never learn anything or pursue anything or work toward anything. They are content as-is. What about you? Are you complete, content as-is?

Each era in history, it's practically been assumed that what's currently modern seems like the apex of human coming up with the latest and the greatest, only to be overshadowed by its impending replacement. Fast-forward 500 years from today. In 2518, our present-day technological wonders might also share that same fate, but is there also a possibility that inventiveness borne of the human mind has reached its pinnacle?~ less

They benefit from what society has to offer them but feel no obligation to make a difference and give back except within their very small community of like-minded avoiders. I see no purpose in living that way. Isolated distant aloof untouched by what goes on around them. Content to stay within a closed circle. Different strokes, right?

If true how does that make any sense?

Even so, let's see how many we can collectively list. Example: one, two, six, and ten each have 3 letters; zero, four, five, and nine each have 4 letters. Jumping way ahead, twenty-eight, twelve million, and three hundred eighty-eight have 11, 13, and 23 letters respectively. Other numbers that also have 11, 13, or 23 letters match up to their sets. RULES:1. English language only2. Whole numbers only, no fractions, decimals, etc3. Hyphens and spaces do not count as letters4. Re-read rule number 65. Unless you skipped ahead reading the rules, you haven't yet read rule number 66. But now you have.7. If you read number 4 and followed it, then you're really confused8. Enjoy!~ less
