In the Begining

MUCH madness is divinest sense
To a discerning eye;
Much sense the starkest madness.
'T is the majority
In this, as all, prevails.
Assent, and you are sane;
Demur,- you're straightway dangerous,
And handled with a chain.

-Emily Dickinson

How true are these words? Man has progressed farther than any other species on this planet, yet it is the only species in which members actively seek out and eliminate other members because of a difference between them. Man has come far, but there is much progress yet to be made.
I will use this blog to document my daily interactions and observations of society's march toward progress. Perhaps my madness does makes sense after all.
