It is amazing to me that a university educated individual is lacking in the ability to embrace diversity. I see it all of the time. My lack of a university education has given me the ability to view the world in a way that a university education may very well have stifled. A liberal arts education is the most diverse of all education's, but I sometimes wonder if it is the best education. I had the fortune to be born to a man and woman that loved to travel. I learned more from them and traveling than I ever learned in a classroom.

Don't get me wrong. I sent my children to university, and am an advocate of higher learning. I just don't think that those without a university education are any less capable of rational, logical and valid ideas and beliefs. To suggest otherwise is insulting.

Off hand, I can think of about a half a dozen posters here living in Texas. It is worthwhile to note that many living in Texas were not born and did not grow up here.
