Most people are neither servant or rulers, just somewhere in-between.

Well, by now I have fully recognised you as a herd creature. That's well and good
No mooing here, but neither any baying. Just being human. If you ever get tired of baying at the moon, you shood try it sometime. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Where you see so-called learning, change and growth I see manipulation and social conditioning.
As long as communication goes both ways there will be learning, change and growth.

Peace is an illusion,a sheep's justification for enforced conformity. Aggression and violence upset timid herd-folk by disrupting the serenity of the group.Yet these same concepts are qualities in an individual who seeks to exert their will over such a herd. And what is survival for the herd other than the security of communal consensus? Huddle together, garner protection in numbers, safety from the outside world.
Sheep seek survival, humans seek more, they seek to live and grow and live in peace.
