The Ugly Truth

…And suddenly, the modern political thoughts met the cruel reality of truth. Ancient societies did not live peaceful, idyllic lives prior to pre-Columbus colonization. The graveyard full of murdered children somehow did not fit that image—even though archeologists had unearthed the truth of it.

And even the most likeable of people could be guilty of despicable crimes.

But if we cannot take the word of the liberals, can we trust the conservatives? Doesn't the fact that the conservatives' obsession with guns (that in their minds) supersedes the carnage of the mass shootings that continue to go unchecked make their position absurd as well?

Am I left to (actually) believe myself? Because I see humanity as having cruel and murderous tendencies; as well as kind and loving ones! Can it be that no one is right… or maybe everyone is right… or wrong? Could it be that the erosion of the family and family values has left large groups of people uninterested in law and order and education and working for a living? My only advice is to think realistically about things before you jump on that politically correct (or conservative) bandwagon…
