At one time, countries expected politicians to put the interest of their own citizens first and foremost. Then after WWII and the Cold War, it became "The Free Market" vs. "Socialism/Communism" and countries were in the perverse position of being ashamed of looking out for their own interest. What we are seeing today with Trump and Trump equivalents in other countries is just reversion to a pre-WWII mideset.

To quote Marco Rubio, "The United States is not a planet" The figure below shows North America and Europe have reduced our coal consumption over the past 50 years. India and China however have about 2,400,000,000 people that want to live the same high energy consumption lifestyle we are living in the USA. Whatever we do to reduce our consumption of coal and other fossil fuels will be a pointless gesture that will spread economic pain to the middle class and lower classes. In the meantime, China and India will continue to consume more coal and other fossil fuels until those resources are gone.

The majority of days in my life I had not told a lie.

That made a big impression on me, and I've told very few lies since.

What is "Compartmentalization" with regard to religion?

BD66 comments on Oct 11, 2018:

Suspension of Disbelief is another potential explanation. Sane rational people can sit through 2 hours of a movie or TV show about a zombie apocalypse, dragons, vampires, etc. Sitting through a church service is no different. The difference is that most people don't let movies about zombies, dragons, and vampires influence their lives. When they let their life be influenced by stories about zombie Jesus, their compartmentalization is failing.

BD66 comments on Sep 25, 2018:

I went through confirmation class when I was 12 years old. After confirmation class, I was forced to attend the adult church service. At the adult church service, the minister (who taught the confirmation class) would inject quotes from the kids at the confirmation class into his sermons. However nobody at the confirmation class ever said those quotes. I would grab my mother's arm and say "He's lying, nobody ever said that". She would grab my arm and tell me to shut up.
