Respect for authority can be overdone. Teaching respect for fellow human beings, including those we disagree with, and doing them, the nation and the world a favor by engaging in dialog while listening carefully, and speaking thoughtfully, rather than staying quiet, would be good. Children should be helped to be analytical. They should be helped to use rationalism, empiricism (including science), follow up on intuition, maintain openness (one of the ancient definitions of faith), and to evaluate authority. I respect authority mainly. Being in "trouble" just ain't worth it. After all this is a temporary situation we're all in here. But when the "authority" are doing things that are unethical, immoral and possibly illegal(in my humble estimation) I question their authority. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave1290 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 I'm sooooo thankful for great people @ my place near Myrtle. On the phone w/3 of them this morning already telling me to relax and let it go. They're right though ya just have to let it go. Kinda wish I was there but we'll see what the videos look like after it's over. Thinking I should have sold the place this spring... Ugh! Those guys flying in the storm are totally insane! It'll sort! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarheel Posted September 10, 2018 Author Share Posted September 10, 2018 Thanks Mike.....good on TP and my arsenal should discourage any looting. My Jack Daniels small batch is iffy and may have to be replenished. My neighbor down the road on the water is sticking it out and they are even older than me😉 A little concerned about that decision. When it gets too bad....it's too late to leave. Ridden them all out since 49' but this one has me worried....... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
