Stated perfectly.
Ozarkgirl has perhaps not traveled out of the Ozarks enough. In Asia, there is nothing but ridiculous testosterone induced hubris. Nobody ever called Zhu Chenghu "arrogant" in the western media.
You are right, I haven't. But then why mess with God's perfection, why would I want to go anywhere else?
I may have stated incorrectly, I think it is because America has been so blessed, and others are jealous as SkyPilot stated, that others perceive America, not individually but as a nation, to be arrogant. This would be a perfect situation to get the help needed for the people down there, build relations with those who want to help and also be humble. Everyone wants to be the big one and give help, what's wrong with that? We do it, it makes us feel good. Let others do it and make themselves feel good while helping people who need help.
don't stop people from singing kumbaya!
