“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be “cured” against one’s will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.”

Hi!, I am a fellow traveler in this strange world. I love watching and commenting on the scenery as it goes by. I read and keep a list of it here on my timeline.
Happy Trails, Be well.

Meet Gerome -The new designated spokes person for this channel. Gerome is not the typical garden variety gnome nor is he a stay at home gnome. Gerome is into art, photography, music, travel and more. He freely speaks his mind. He may not always be politically correct, however it is never his goal to purposely offend anyone. He firmly believes Truth can survive all logical and reasonable debate. Gerome is a skeptic. He believes that Science is only a tool...a method of inquiry ...not a test of "truth". Science seeks to prove a THEORY through controlled and closely monitored repetition. However neither consistency nor apparent correlation of results is actual "proof" of causation. It is merely an indication of the probability of a specific result. Science is NEVER settled. That's why "Scientific conclusions" will always remain theories.... Useful ...sometimes...accurate predictions .. but not necessarily attributable to factors as outlined in the currently accepted theory. Certain things mankind will probably never know or understand. Such matters lie in the domain of God and the realm of faith.
