Is Margaret Mead wrong again?

[Guest guest]

I feel sad at having to reply to my own question!

(And you are right to feel that way: it is

sad.)<br><br>But I think Margaret Mead is right. It is harder to

change your diet than your religion.<br><br>Almost all

people learn their religion in childhood just as most

learn to love fude as kids.<br><br>The sad truth is

that almost no-one changes their religion due to

rational argument and on-one changes their diet due to

reason.<br><br>Diet and religion are irrational.<br><br>So the only

way to inculcate diet and religion is with

children.<br><br>In fact Dietry Laws are religious laws.<br><br>So it

is only when you are completely gullible are you

able to accept diet and religion without

question.<br><br>Children are completely gullible: they will believe

anything and eat anything. Just look at Jonathon

Livingston Seagull.<br><br>Victor.<br><br>PS: Is there

anything sadder than an Instigator talking to himself?

Yes, an Instigator in tears in front of his computer;

an Instigator who can't hit the right note!
