If it turns out to be BS, I have lost nothing

A bored Boy tending Sheep cried “Wolf!” to get attention. He did it again and people came. A third time and the Boy was ignored. Goodbye flock.

A liar will not be believed, even when telling the truth.

As I recall, it was goodbye boy. But maybe he got the flock too. What a hungry wolf that was.

How right you are. Which is exactly the point I was explaining to Wayne. We have been lied to so much that we are the villagers. When we hear "wolf", even though it may be true, we don't believe it. We are conditioned that way.

The first step in breaking conditioning is to recognize that you are conditioned. Only then can you think freely.

I choose to think freely.

Join me.
