re: What if you're wrong?

Doesn't matter the side. Have you ever really thought about it?

What if your belief of whatever is or isn't going to happen ends up being 180* off?

What if YOU are the villain in the story?

Does anyone ever have thoughts like that creep in?

Only a fool would not question their belief. That is the point of a debate forum like TD; you throw out opinions and ideas and have them critiqued by people who may be smarter than you are. In fact, I think my own views have changed since coming to the Poliboard. Of course, the World changes, and getting closer to the end of this life as well creates different perspective.

Re "belief of what is going to happen"...is virtually impossible to predict, as there are so many dynamic variables. The inability to predict the future, does not make one villainous.

The Idea (Egalitarian) that all people should be rewarded the same in life, is contrary to both Mother Nature and God. And trying to coerce real equity, is folly, if not immoral. As people are by degree either ignorant ("wrong") or willfully dishonest and irresponsible in order to get ahead the easy way, a person's value to society should determine their worth. NWS, the guarantee of life's basics - if able, and applicable with basic qualifiers/expectations - would be available to those of lesser ability/economic worth, as a matter of moral principle. Mercy, as it were.
