Your thoughts on Satanism and the petition for a Satanic statue.

The first time I took the bus from Brooklyn to Manhattan, I ended up being the only white person in the vehicle, and it suddenly dawned on me that until that day I had no idea how strange that feels.

But I digress.

Fair enough, and I see your point. You're right, I guess technically it's impossible for me to say for sure whether or not I would care if I was put in a situation I had never experienced before. I can only say I don't see myself caring, but if I'm being 100% precise, I should say it's impossible to know for sure. I went to a public high school in a liberal city, where I was the only conservative minded/practicing Christian in my group of friends, and I learned to deal with that. But I know this is a much much smaller scale, so perhaps you're right... perhaps I would care.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
