Sheep or Humans?

  That is what humans are.  If there was one thing that the god of the ancient jews was right, it is this.
Humans are like sheep.  Though there are few exceptions, most are like sheep, they almost demand to be guided.  Can't think on their own, or better, don't allow themselves to think on their own.  They prefer the safety of not having to rely on their own brain, but instead follow the more secure way of following others.  
  Humans are like sheep for one more reason.  They tend to rely on their nature more to reach decisions and act than on logic.  When they do think, they do so as long as it doesn't stop them from being sheep.
  If several people said "this is what god(s) want" or "don't you love your country?", trying to pursuade "you" to do as they want, then chances are you will.  You will admit that since god(s) want this, it must be what you must do.  You will admit that since you love your country, what they are saying it is the right thing to do if you do love your country, you must do as they say.  After all, you wouldn't love your country/god otherwise, correct?
Sheep.
  Why? No, really, why? When, how and why again.  You should ask.  Don't settle for answers that have to rely on you having faith, faith on their word, faith that they actualy know and they are not lying to you.  If you have to rely on faith to believe/be persuaded about a course of action, then you are, sheep.
  Proof, you have to demand for proof.  When/if proof is given to you, watch out, is it possible to reach to other conclusions with the proof given to you, different than what they are telling you?
  Courage, you have to be brave.  You will be accused of being a coward, a traitor, stupid, sleeping with the enemy.  You (depending on where you live) might also face persecution, imprisonment, or even death.  Nothing I can say will help you with this, you are on your own.  Each of us is.  When the circumstances are such, beware.  Plan accordingly, but don't give up.  When the shit hits the fan, you will suffer, make it sure you make it clear to everybody as why this is happening.  Don't apologise, don't retreat.  We only live our lives once, make it worth it.
  Don't be sheep, be human beings.
