On another forum this morning I read about a guy crying because he lost about $28500-00. Apparently he left a car to be sold by a secondhand dealer who now refuses to give him his money.

Turns out the guy signed all transfer papers etc. before the deal was made. This is in South Africa.

So to me it looks like Faith and Trust goes hand in hand.
Men are born ignorant, not stupid. They are made stupid by education.
Bertrand Russell

The fact that an opinion has been widely held is no evidence whatever that it is not utterly absurd.
