You seem to be conflicted between a professed philosophical outlook and an actual obedience to indoctination by a particular authoritative world view.

"Authorities? You sound like a birther."

That comment makes no sense, and it certainly doesn't describe anything connected to my presentations here.

“Unthinking respect for authority is the greatest enemy of truth.”
Albert Einstein

"Mind made up? That is called education. Learning. Those are historical facts

No its not, its called indoctrination. Genuine education and learning is open ended and free flowing.

“Whoever undertakes to set himself up as a judge of Truth and Knowledge is shipwrecked by the laughter of the gods.”
Albert Einstein

"You seem to think you know the big picture, then tell me one large ccountry or religion in all of history prior to 100 years ago where women were treated equally?

One!?

There are none.

I've made no such claim. In fact my position is the opposing view. All worldly authority is corrupted by its self serving interest in power, and consequently must be resisted. The only genuine authority is our internal nature when it is free to seek truth and justice.

""Anyone who knows history knows this is the best of all times."

Oh Candide, dare to leave of the Castle of the Baron of Thunder-ten-tronckh? When you stop living the lie, the adventure of your life is waiting.
