The real world

Adam, I'm abashed it took me so long...but I get this song now.

I'm tired of people cussing their heads off on the sidewalk.  I'm tired of people caustically bashing my political views as if they aren't legit.  I'm tired of people being oh-so-careful not to offend anybody or anything, except my faith.  I refuse to live in those people's reality. 

Suppose we have only dreamed, or made up, all those things–trees and grass and sun and moon and stars and Aslan himself. Suppose we have. Then all I can say is that, in that case, the made-up things seem a good deal more important than the real ones. . .So, thanking you kindly for our supper, if these two gentlemen and the young lady are ready, we’re leaving your court at once and setting out in the dark to spend our lives looking for Overland. Not that our lives will be very long, I should think; but that’s a small loss if the world’s as dull a place as you say.

Dear reader, don't ever feel stupid just because you're not worldly-'wise'. If that's what's meant by intelligence, it's better to be ignorant.
