Stupid people!

Einstein said: "Two things are infinite: Human stupidity and the universe, and I'm not sure about the universe" And he was so so right!!! Everyday I seem to encounter more and more stupid people, Dunedin is full of them, New Zealand is full of them, and this planet is full of them. I just hope the beings on other planets have learned to use their grey matter (or whatever their equivalent is!) better than homosapiens. Supposedly we are intelligent life-forms? I really have my doubts sometimes! Of course ignorance is bliss, this is true. The older I get the more I learn that I don’t know, and time is running out to learn it all, though I’m trying hard. But most things are straightforward, like Mathematics. It’s logical, easy to interpret and usually doesn’t take so long to do so; the bible on the other hard doesn’t seem so easy for people. The problem is people think it IS easy, so they take from it the superficial literal level that they see and treat it like they are reading “Hairy MacLeary” (But don’t get me started on critical literacy, most people miss 90% of what is in picture books! (Not a statistical fact)). The bible should be like Mathematics, with one correct answer, but people seem to believe it is open to interpretation, cos I have heard many different accounts of some aspects of the bible. Should I keep my frustration inward to avoid persecution from those who apparently love me? Or should I vent like Luther, and write prolifically? If I could have such a radical outcome as Luther then I would follow his tradition, probably will before my time is out. But the simple fact is that it is hard to live in this world without friends, even if most friends seem to live on the periphery, that’s better than nothing right? It’s said that I live in this world but not of it. I definitely don’t live of it, but usually feel I don’t live in it either. But then if I’m not sailing away on Shadowlands, then I’ll never feel like I’m on the same planet as those around me. It’s a good thing that God is my best friend cos he won’t excommunicate me, and he actually understands me! On a lighter note, anyone wanna come over and play the Da Vinci game with me?
