I have spend decades watching people and trying to get a good grip on how humans think. yet it keeps raising one question over and over. Here are a series of questions that pertain to that one question in a round about way. Why do people that say every living thing should be protected swat misquitoes? Why do people that say we should save energy and not pollute make fun of those who hang clothes on a line rather than use a dryer. Why do they say loud pipes save lives, but they do not want you to have a loud car? Why do those opposed to testing drugs on animals buy drugs for their ill family members? Why do people who oppose eating animals wear leather or eat gelitan? Why do people say they want to be treated like everybody else unless you do then they don't like it? How can a person that says they hate all bigots not consider themselves one? Why do those opposed to violence call the police? It goes on and on and I do hope that you will free to add your own questions to the list.
Which leads me to the one question: Do we just lack commitment to our ideas, not think them all the way through, or just think it should apply only to others?
