When I read articles like this one, I can't help but think about the young man from LA who, having bee born with no arms, played the guitar with his feet and sang for Pope John Paul II.

I didn't know of the man you're speaking of, but I know of what you speak.

My goodness we have become a society that is made of absolutely nothing.

Several years ago I took a part-time job in a upscale grocery store, and I kept noticing that all these younger women, you know, between the ages of 13 and 18 looked oddly similar. Their noses all looked alike.

It took me a while to put 2 and 2 together and figure out that all these girls probably had plastic surgery. It was a very affluent area, and diverse in population so there's no way melting pot would produce those noses.


The reason I mention it is because we really have become slaves to the superficial. Superficial beauty, superficial intelligence and superficial goodness. And in my mind, none of this bodes very well. And isn't it amazing that in the never ending quest for and defense of diversity, everyone wants to look alike.

Made of nothing!
