[QUOTE="island1fox, post: 1287956, member: 4816"] Most "Historians" Record events in History as they perceive them--not how you or me may see the same event- Scholars -of all stripes ---experts ??? Most of them hang out with 18-19-20-21-18 -19 -20 21-Year olds --Can completely bamboozle them ---Me --Historians or scholars ---My guide is MY Tabla Rasa --what I have experienced--what I have seen, heard, been taught--have lived ---My values --whether the same or different than you or others --Is certainly what matters most to me. Just an example of how we perceive things and REALITY : I recently attended a Political Social Event (I was invited by a close Liberal friend) --that was celebrating the election of a very Liberal Mayor . People attending this "invitation only" event would never imagine a Conservative would be among them--I was truly amazed to be among the very "High Society" Liberals --that among friends -let out their true beliefs ---as the Champagne flowed -the tongues loosened up: "They have Lower I.Q.'s than us--either we take care of their basics--or they will take them" A definite theme and belief that people would not associate to Big Hearted Liberals. They also referred to Abortion as population control --particularly in the poor and Minority areas !! Go figure --People would have think that only the KKK or a GOP gathering would speak in such terms. Amazing what the Upper "Limousine Liberals" will say behind closed doors---as long it is not in the press !! Things are not always as we PERCEIVE them to be. But most people will tell you -that is MY Perception --therefore it is Reality--not so !! A new cold war --Reality or Perception ?? [/QUOTE]
