Childish Victims
I know there will be some who disagree with what I am about to write but there are always a few who disagree about everything and there are those who no one can please yet I don't write to please anyone. I simply write what I learn or have learned. Seems like I am getting off the subject here so I'll try to get back on course with my thoughts.
I am convinced everyone is a childish victim. This might seem like it is approaching the negative side or maybe even totally negative but not really. Let me explain. Every person that is born has no knowledge. Their mind is kind of like a blank slate or empty file as we think of it today. Every child learns as they grow and develop and so they become what they learn yet they are taught by people, men and women who are imperfect and so they become the victim of the teacher. Children are victims of people who error. This not to say that anything is done intentionally but rather just the way it goes. People think they do what is right and so they teach their children either consciously or unconsciously through their words and actions and so the children learn. Teachers, preachers and everyone who is older then the children are teachers to the young yet they error and so children learn error and know not and so they become the victim of the error of another. It is a vicious cycle and so few know. All children are the victims of adults and their teachings simply through living with them. Do you see? If only we could change it! Can we? I suppose the challenge is to find the truth and let our life reveal that truth so the children will see and understand the difference and then choose truth for truth is surely the right way to teach the children yet religion is not truth but error and that is another subject.
