http://www.tompaine.com/articles/2006/04/20/iran_dont_do_it.php My response (sent to that web site): Liberty for kids Kids need parents who have a capacity to judge accurately. We depend on it. What matters most originates between the ears so having sound judgment in the beginning can lead to sound judgment further down the road. Unfortunately that equation can sometimes turn out bad i.e. garbage in – garbage out. For example: A kid may wake up and ask: Daddy; what is that on your computer? The parent might say: That is a device that turns sewer water into a clean burning fuel. It is based upon hydrogen. Daddy might add: Here is a device that turns water into a new form of hydrogen that can cut fuel costs in half. This device goes under the hood and all the owner needs to do is to keep adding water in this little tank. If I get that device and install it in my car then I can buy more food and less gas; half as much gas to drive the same distance. Just add water. And the car doesn’t pollute as much. Oh and the car has more power. Then again: Daddy might say something else. I’m looking at the person who might launch Nuklar missiles at people we don’t really know for reasons that we are not told. As far as I can tell, so far, the mass murdering that may happen soon is caused by our lack of sound judgment. It is our fault. You see, sweetheart, the people have lost their way. Our neighbors and the parents of your friends at school have become children; almost all of them. They have decided to allow the biggest bully to have his way. The really bad part about that situation is really not our neighbors and your friend’s parents fault. The really bad part is that the biggest bully is just a big kid himself. The poor boy doesn’t have a clue. My daughter might decide to investigate further into her parents business. She might ask: What can I do to help? Daddy responds with the usual response. Don’t lie. Your grandpa and grandma made sure that your Dad knew this to be true. Don’t lie; not to yourself. http://www.lewrockwell.com/pilger/pilger40.html |
