That's a big factor that plays into my love of children. They're so free to see whatever they want that they do often see more than adults. <br />Thanks for the insight, and I'm glad you'll be contemplating for awhile!Tephrochrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09887714536640435040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8232322938673815908.post-32907821335313586092010-03-29T08:13:43.842-07:002010-03-29T08:13:43.842-07:00You make some very good points and leave quite a f...You make some very good points and leave quite a few good thoughts in my brain for me to contemplate. I had a discussion on the study of psychology and sociology (not exactly the same subject, I know - bare with me!) with a professor of mine the other week in which we discussed how we can ever hope to make our field of study scientific. We can't be objective about it; if we were to be as such, we'd have to separate ourselves from humanity - become something more or less than human in order to understand what a human was and how it thought and interacted.<br /><br />I think this goes the same for "sin," and I use the term simply because you used it - you know I'm a little skeptical about religion though I don't deny anyone the right to believe - the instant you commit a negative action, or sin, you become blinkered by it and cannot see past the restriction. You become a subculture, a self segregated part of the community which, even if you started down the path based on good intentions, you forget that the best intentions don't just concern you. <br /><br />Now, I've only just woken up, so the above may not make too much sense (at 8 am, ergh, I have not woken up this early in some time)but, simply put, you have made some very interesting points that I will mull over the rest of today :)Codexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09456990846157811330noreply@blogger.com
