Just thinking. We revere our leaders, not our politicians.
Would so rather be over educated that a knuckle dragging Neanderthal bereft of critical thought and imagination. Although in the case of Neanderthals, that's quite the insult.

I listened to a discussion this one time, and it was fascinating. I had never thought about it before, but basically, back when we had a king when the king ruled with an iron fist, everyone loved the king. No one loves and adores the politicians like they do the king, celebrities, and warriors. I can't remember off hand the conclusion as to why this is paradox exits.

Strange, isn't it?
Was watching the movie Gladiator at the scene where maximus had won against the Germanics. The emperor said," it's not me they salute, it's you maximus.

Earwigs are about the only bug that bugs me. Maybe that's why. I wouldn't eat one.
