"He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches." - George Bernard Shaw

***

On social pressure:

"How often have we heard remarks like “How can you do that can? call yourself a Christian?” or “A good Buddhist doesn’t do…….” Etc

Which was why I found inclusive, non-judgemental, non-religious groups that worked for the good of humanity, and at the same time encouraged decisions to be fact-based (rather than subjective value-based) very attractive.

However, after joining several of these groups, I find myself back to square one.

Because I’ve added many of these people to my Facebook etc, I find myself in a position where before I want to put anything on my status bar, I’ve to consider what a feminist, humanist, vegetarian, atheist, agnostic, homosexual, environmentalist etc etc etc might think. And I find myself in a position where I can no longer make a joke or even announce my craving for KFC anymore.

I feel so restricted,? l feel like I’ve to be politically correct all the time, and after a while I notice people around me doing the same."
