Yes. I believe part of the problem is people are scared to step outside of their comfort zones, let alone stand on the fence and look around. The herd mentality comes with little or no personal responsibility from the self to become an individual unless it entails attention. Skepticism seems projected as a negative atribute, often confused with "cynicism" perhaps because of the mistaken feelings it envolks in others.
Some of us do understand though, that THE TRUTH WILL SET US FREE.
Each personal truth stands alone and needs no reinforcement, no compensation, no lies, no veils and no debate from the one that holds it. Just a strong and steady conscience. It has no need to change BUT can be updated over time with new information and knowledge. The new truth cannot be placed over the previous one but must stand by it's side because the evolution of a truth should be visible to fully understand it. Nothing can change, it can only grow.
Unfortunately the "Hippocampus" of our brains, which deals mainly in learning and memory, will always be the downfall of a stubborn ignorant hooman. Mistakes, failures and unlearned lessons stunt it's natural growth through trauma and a wish to never revisit the things some cannot bear to consider to understand further.
Ever heard the phrase 'You shouldn't live in the past" from someone? There's a sign about the individual right there. I often respond with "I don't. it lives in me".
Ho-Hum...Like the alien playing the familiar father figure of Dr. Eleanor "Ellie" Arroway in the movie "Contact" when she took her trip and asked why "they" didn't make full contact on a larger scale..... "Small steps" he said.."small steps".
Sowing the seed of explaining the origin of the word "Governmental" is a great way (for me anyway) to cast a thought into the mind of another as something undeneniable and fundemental written in black and white, and once planted, they cannot unhear it or unsow it. Whether they grow and nurture it is another matter, but I will always shine some light where I can.
