Not mad, disgusted maybe, but the greedy and power hungry have been using the system for personal gain since the invention of bread....so, you're not onto anything new there. You have your things you're passionate about, and I have mine.....yet, you get to choose which is justified, right? You've maybe gotten a little too used to being two faced, or you mistake personal desire for integrity. Either way, I like the stands I take. Success comes in many forms.
True education comes from always examining multiple perspectives on subjects and critically thinking through the perspectives with objectivity. My personal views do not enter the classroom....outside of my love of the Constitution and the nation, my desire for equality, and my understanding of the role discipline plays in personal success.....even the environmentalism isn't something that I force on my students. Otherwise it's not education.
I get to choose what is justified for myself, you are correct. I don't care what you do or believe, it's between you and Jesus. Just don't get pissed when I don't share a similar passion.
True that. I was wrong to assume I know what motivates you, or the extent of your integrity. Different strokes....and we all need to listen a little more, including myself.
My motivations are simple. Healthy and successful family, a happy wife, and 2 daughters that don't end up on the pole. Retirement at 50, or sooner, in latitudes closer to the equator. A restaurant/bar on the beach and 54 ft of fiberglass by Bayliss or Blackwell coupled with a 27' Scout.
