IGNORANT OPINIONS AND PERSONAL BIASES

The Heaviest Burden
That A Human Must Bear
Is The Ball And Chain Of Ignorant Opinions
And The Personal Biases
To Which His Mind Is Bolted

If One Is Unable Or Unwilling
To Change His Mental Customs
And If He Fails To Impartially Examine
The Challenging Ideas Of Others
His Mind Will Remained Chained
Within The Cage He Has Chosen
To Exist Inside Of His Apathy

One Who Attempts To Preserve His Prejudices
By Closing His Narrow Mind
To The Informative Intrusion Of Intelligence
Will Become The First Victim
Of His Own Mental Devices

Whenever One Finds Security
Within His Own Deep Ignorance
He Is Disinclined To Seek His Freedom
From The Prison Of His Personal Perspective

One Who Deeply Believes
That His Ignorant Opinions
Are Acceptable Substitutes
For His Lack Of Concrete Facts
Is A Simple-Minded Fool

One Whose Deepest Thoughts
Are The Intellectual Descendents Of Shallow Thinkers
Has A Vested Interest
In The Long Term Growth Of Gossip

Whenever One Refuses To Exercise
His Right To Think Objectively
He Is Bound To Dwell In Darkness
Where The Immature Mind Is Idle

As Long As One Continues To Reject
The Realities Of Sound Knowledge
And Embraces His Own Ignorance
He Will Remain Intellectually Entangled
In The Vines And Branches Of His Biases
