Funny you should mention parents. My parents are appalled and view me as an unhappy man. I tell them I would be unhappy if I lived in an illusion parading around as reality, and, all along I knew it was an illusion. Instead, I take on the animated contest of freedom(Sam Adams) to force the hand of the illusionist to expose a reality that can be touched, known, and lived. That, my friends has brought me a unique happiness. I somewhat look forward to my traffic court date on the 20th now!
My parents do have a point though. We must balance our exposure of fraud to certain friends or forever get cooked in a pot of their choosing and be viewed as miserable wretches. They don't all feel the splinter in their brains. I am sure I've got enough specks in my eye too.
My dad is a retired Lt Col from the airforce. I have shown him some Pentagon stuff very passively. He finally said that certainly an airliner did not hit the place, but really can't go further. Personally, I thought that was a huge step!
