You have again superbly expressed my exact thoughts on these matters. <br /><br />We just watched Blackfish tonight for the second time, and realized a deeper and broader level implied in the story. So many are under the Wetiko spell that no one has the courage to speak up, in an infinite number of collective situations we all experience every day. Good people fall back on compartmentalizing what they know is absolutely wrong...that old Emperor's New Clothes syndrome. "Well, 'they' (experts/authorities) must know more than us."

And certainly in Nature, there are some far better envelopes than ours.<br /><br />We are the aberration. It must be a constant disappointment for other species that trust of humans is more often than not, hard to come by.ninahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16359122650046678312noreply@blogger.com
