Thread Name: Obit: The sad passing of Common Sense
Subject: RE: Obit: The sad passing of Common Sense
Much of this is not common sense, but pure prejudice, which is some people's version of common sense. Today's common sense is the residue of crap pushed through television and mediocre news. It is hardly the wisdom of generations handed down by elders.

The 10 commandments are hardly common sense, which is why Moses had such a tough time. The golden calf is common sense!!

Besides, common sense is overrated. Some of the stupidest people I know are ordinary folk. Also some of the smartest.
