Snowflakes

Is it just me, or has our culture begun to spiral downward in the character department? I don’t want to seem judgemental, but, really, are we saying that if someone “feels” offended, the speaker is responsible for the other’s feelings.

So, now, in the new millennium, have we decided that I am responsible for your feelings?  

Hmm. Well, I do not accept that responsibility.

I am sorry for “snowflakes” who are somehow so delicate, that any thing they do not agree with, is offensive. Unbelievable.  That means we cannot have diaglogue, discussion, or even debate. That means we are all about conformity.

I recently met a Millennial who told me he is an atheist because he does not want to be a conformist.

Again, wow. I am not much of a conformist, and have never found that to be at odds with my relationship with God.

Please people. Get a grip.

How will we raise strong, healthy people, if they cannot endure any disagreement, any controversy, any thought that is not fed to them by those who always agree with them or with whom they always agree?

This is a real question.  

We must not spiral downwards towards the state-mandated, cookie-cutter thinking George Orwell wrote about.

Or is it too late?
