To split the cost of fuel, about 40 years ago, 5 of us drove 3 hours on a prairie highway through a winter blizzard, with snow drifting across the road like flowing water.
The cops were closing the road behind us. None of us could afford a motel, so we kept rolling.
I was counting the many seconds that we couldn't see the road, let alone the lines painted on the road.
It's a good thing the roads are straight as a ruler because we were driving 100 kmh.
How are we alive? #fools
Talk sense to a fool and he calls you foolish.

Tis just another Apocalypse Sunday
on the road to fiery Armageddon
Some pilgrims come
for the warped soul redemption
Rapture seeking on their knees #fools
chanting by rote ancient hypocrisies
Lapping up every morsel of false prophesies
from preachers serving up after party salvation
heaped high on the congregation's collection plate
Preaching the greatest fallacy
hard sold throughout history
that we sinners can somehow be saved
with a few clever prayers
and generous donations
to a God too busy taking down names
to participate in this hosanna con
There are countless #fools in the world who imagine they know something. If you want to #learn, you must first acknowledge your own #ignorance, as Socrates did, and then you can build from there, with #humility, and by respecting those people who know infinitely more than you. - Mike Hockney

Here's another. Atheist poetry by Yip Harburg
ATHEIST
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree;
And only God who makes the tree
Also makes the fools like me.
But only fools like me, you see,
Can make a God, who makes a tree.

@speckmantel @cyberfelidae Leider gibt es einzelne #Fools mit Einfluss. Und Politiker wird man nicht durch Ausbildung, sondern durch Berufung. Oft und nicht immer, ist das auch gut so.
