Think Rationally

Reason obeys itself; ignorance submits to whatever is dictated to it. Thomas Paine

Those who are independent, rational, and think for themselves are able to form correct opinions; those who are lazy remain ignorant and must be led by others. In our society, only those who are lazy remain ignorant, as knowledge and wisdom are available at your fingertips. Therefore, ignorance is a personal choice.

Ignorant people choose to submit themselves to others in the hope that those in charge are honest, wise, and have knowledge which they themselves lack. But as we have seen over and over again, those in our government and in leadership positions often lack wisdom and common sense themselves. In addition, many in government make decisions according to what is best for themselves, not for the citizens of the country. So those who submit themselves to be led by these people are submitting to corrupt, dishonest snakes with their own agendas. This is unwise no matter how you spin it.

Stop being lazy and start thinking for yourself! Think rationally and do your homework. Do not blindly submit to whatever is dictated to you. Politicians and those in positions of power are there to serve you and your country; if they are not doing so wisely, honestly, and for the benefit of all, then you should not follow their dictates. God did not put those people on this planet to rule over you; and God did not put you on this planet to be a sheep.

Think for yourself and be independent. Don’t choose ignorance or blindly follow whatever dictates are handed down to you by others. You are in charge of your life; don’t give up your independence because you are too lazy to do your own research and think for yourself. Think rationally and be wise. Otherwise, you are simply choosing to be a slave of your own ignorance and the dishonest men and women in power who take advantage of your ignorance. Wise up!
