Nov09Old gal To me it is oovbius that a lack of education can lead to poverty and crime that people feel they must commit to survive, but the big crimes in our society have been propagated by the educated. Bernie Madoff, ENRON, Doctors performing abortions, garden variety Wall street conniving, high level political & military corruption these deeds are all committed by the educated and have more negative impact on us than poverty crime. I very much appreciate calling out educational elitists. I remember being in Jr High and watching the Honor Society set up a booth at a school fair. I knew that I would never be defined as honorable based on their definitions because I struggle with math, but why did they have to claim honor for themselves? Couldn't they just call themselves The smart people society ? I am still not good at math and my academic credentials (a nursing diploma vs the more respected baccalaureate) are still considered substandard, but I endeavor each day to honor God in service.
Jane got enough pillows ?
