Clearly, we have gone stupid
I am wondering if we have gone stupid? First of all, why
would a smart university do something so stupid? Secondly, why would the public
believe it was a clerical error. Most half intelligent people would never do
something so stupid. I’m thinking we have just gone brain dead as a society. We
think were so smart. At a university, their so smart that they could not be
that stupid. Yet, clearly, they can be.
In Canada, they are giving people the option of having no
sex declared on their passport. In Canada, you don’t need a passport. So, the
sex issue is a nonstarter. Yet, if you need to go to another country with
different rules, you do need one with the declared sex type. Are we brain dead?
Clearly, we have gone stupid. Our judgment on sex does not apply in the remaining
parts of the world. You need to declare your sex type. Saudi Arabia will not
care if you don’t care. Passports are for the other countries, not our own. Stupid
is what stupid does, clearly.
In Calgary Alberta, Canada we allow our politicians to
use public money for various things. I’m sure that is the same everywhere in
the world. Recently, in the last few years the powers at be have gone stupid. First
was a bridge over a river. It was designed to look totally different than the
rest of the city. It also cost over 50 million dollars to build. Second, was an
art design on a bridge. It was a large circle that was blue. It cost 50
thousand to design. It’s a circle. Thirdly, was a native heritage design made
by an American (not Canadian or native). It is a jumble of cement and girders. It’s
art I guess but not native. It cost a half a million. This city has gone brain
dead.
What does God have to say about people. Proverbs 15:21 Stupidity is the delight of the senseless,
but an understanding man walks uprightly. That is, it. Even God knows what
stupidity is. To have art in a city is one thing. A half a million is another. Believing
you have no sexual markers in your body is one thing, what others think about
you is another. Thinking you’re smart so you can’t act stupid is another too.
God knows human frailty.
Society, is fictitious to some. It’s people that make up
society. Ok, fair enough, but why are we seemingly getting more stupid as a
whole? I am leaning towards society gone stupid. We think were so smart that we
lack wisdom. Wisdom is cautious. Wisdom takes less risks. Wisdom does this: believe
half of what you see and none of what you hear. We believe we come from
monkeys. We believe that nature is unisexual. It’s no wonder were making stupid
mistakes because stupid is what stupid does.
Ok, don’t believe me. Brush me off. Are you really ok
with a 50-million-dollar bridge? With education over runs and hospital
constraints, should a half a million be spent on art? I think that type of
reasoning leads to universities opening spam mail. Only an idiot would do that.
There are people who leave animals and children in hot cars. There are people
who believe there is nothing wrong with pardoning female murderers because
their female. Our logic is declining at an alarming rate.
So, where does that leave us? I don’t know? Every week I
am reading stories of mega churches refusing people in need. I read governments
taxing small business more. I read of money being spent on art instead of
hospitals. They are entertaining the thought of not teaching children to write.
The basics of knowledge are being abandoned. I guess it’s no wonder that reason
and wisdom are being abandoned too.
