    This is a problem though BT because people like yourself will always be fighting the cause for yourself and all those other downtrodden people who you support.
    What is your intention? Ah, wait a minute, the intention is to get to the elevated status of those whom you despise, therefore, you really wish to become one of those who you consider to be elite.

    Personally, I do not strive for anything, accept life as it is and will always try to help people no matter what their status. Simples!

    Otherwise known as 'the politics of greed and envy' BT, it can drive some people quite mad, best listen to Sub's wise words and let it all wash over you.

    This lad was obviously educated at a grammar school

    A young boy enters a barber shop and the barber whispers to his customer, «This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch while I prove it to you.»
    The barber puts a dollar bill in one hand and two quarters in the other, then calls the boy over and asks, «Which do you want, son?»
    The boy takes the quarters and leaves.
    «What did I tell you?» said the barber. «That kid never learns!»
    Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same young boy coming out of the ice cream store.
    «Hey, son! May I ask you a question?»
    «Why did you take the quarters instead of the dollar bill?»
    The boy licked his cone and replied,




    «Because the day I take the dollar, the game is over!

    BT you know that I don't waste time with politicians of any creed.

    By the way, you need to read my other post again because I do not consider anyone to be 'elite' What I actually said was "..........you really wish to become one of those who you consider to be elite"

    ''All I want is for every child born on this spinning globe of ours to have the same life chances and life expectancy.''

    Life expectancy varies but then Life's chances -yes !

    Now that's the slogan of a Proutist. You are a natural Proutist ,but you don't know it. So now not to think in terms of a million miles,its now much less ! This is the first Philosophy in the history of the world to include,the physical, mental and the spiritual!

    Does any Socialist philosophy cover that?

    I am sure we are all good friends on here ,at least non have been moved to the loony bin!

    Wise words - and here ends the lesson.

    But there is another way to see things army,

    !).....''people like yourself will always be fighting the cause for yourself and all those other downtrodden people who you support''.

    Is that not the glory of humanity? Will that Crimson dawn be arising soon on the horizon? Is the call do not be indecisive, do not hesitate, and do not under any circumstances feel fear. Your victory is a certainty. Each and every intelligent person of the world, everyone who has an iota of intelligence, should try to goad all his energies,to his own glory,to his own divinity? There is in every living being a thirst for limitlessness.

    ''Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.

    .....here endeth the 2nd lesson
