first off, we have it way better than, say, animals. They are taught to kill a or eat a certain thing, they do that till they die. Tigers can’t even change their shirts.

but really, some basic platform of knowledge and learning must be laid down or we’ll never be able to grow up and think for ourselves. If someone is just blindly following their path as another “cog”, then chances are, they don’t care about being a cog. If you don’t want to be a cog, then FREE WILL baby. If it were truly as you described, we wouldn’t have so many different thoughts, beliefs and morals … unless it’s just been a really long, bad game of “telephone”.
cheers.

I can’t believe you are having these thoughts at this particular time…because..I have been going through a situation at work that has me thinking almost the exact things. It has more to do with “social class” which also groups and stereotypes people. It seems to be so much more prevalent in small towns especially in the South. Its still who you know, not WHAT you know!!!!!!!

I think you’re REALLY stretching here!! There are sooo many different types of people out there.

BUT, that’s the great thing about a relationship with God. We don’t conform to this world, but find out who He created us to be regardless of what others expect:)

These are very Deep Thoughts.

Try dealing with all of the above plus an identical twin. To this day most people can’t tell us apart, and if they can differentiate between our faces they can’t remember which personality or characteristic bits go with which twin.

Talk about an identity crisis.
