Quote of the day–Jenny Block

The problem, it seems to me, is this. People are pack animals and they want — need — approval from the herd. So, forcing this one-size-fits-not-nearly-everyone way of life down everyone’s throat is detrimental to everyone. Living a life that doesn’t fit is miserable and that misery plays out in unhappy ways in people’s lives.

Open Relationships: What the World Already Has
[The pack animal observation applies to so many things that bug me about people. It is a huge component of the attacks on freedom. From gay rights and gun control to religious intolerance you will find this urge to conform and to enforce conformity playing a big part.–Joe]

  1. Conformity. That would be, “…urge to conform and to enforce conformity…”

  2. Oh, I agree. I completely agree.

    I mean, the rest of you guys feel the same way, right?

    Because, you know, if you don’t, I’m sort of in the middle of the road on this issue.

    I think.
