I think education is always there, and yes it is the individuals choice to use it or not, but any other education NOT approved by the gov't or what not is either not available or VERY hard to access or learn. This country is based on the educational system given by the gov't and as far as I can see, its the only way I myself can get anything(well, maybe not everything), money,etc. So of course I'm going to believe, as everyone else will and has. THAT is a fault on myself and all of those people that believe.

I agree but again some don't have that kind of access to the above, leaving them with the same twisted theory of heroism and what is a right and a wrong.

Yesh, this is...I don't Know maybe more in-depth than just over a few wires and a monitor.

very true...that's something to think on Dah. But what happens when that fault interferes with their message. THAT is not a hero to me if they keep preaching the same message but constantly break their own rules. But there are still some who believe what they say (that do as i say ish is for tha birds).

Yesh, I suppose. I digress.
