Evil: an idle mind

Why do I say an idle mind is the most evil of evils? Well, simply a mind that is not used is easily infiltrated. Infiltrated with what? Infiltrated with thoughts, perceptions, deceptions and illusions. No one can truly say at any point of time when being questioned that they have nothing on their minds. The fact that they can produce an answer is fact enough that the mind is thinking of how to answer that question.

When we begin to stop thinking for ourselves and let others (including non-human objects) think for us, our idle minds become the subject of another's stronger sense of will. We lose reasoning and not mind for our own well-being. If the other party is so convincing that they have more power over your life than you, than you have become a slave. Why be a slave? We were not made to fear anything but God alone. How can another man create fear in a fellow man? We were created the same. Almost, bearing some size issues.

When man begin to believe that they have power over other men and that the only way to maintain power is by stamping their authority, that is when their downfall truly begins. Has there ever been a dictator who has lived while having complete control over his dominions? None yet. Even the most powerful of dictators have to give in at least 1 other person. So I say never fear authority, but respect authority. Seniority deserves their respect. They have experience on their side, no doubting. But when decisions become illogical, question them. Do not blindly follow or worse, give in due to fear. We have no reason to fear another human being. I speak softly because I respect you not because I fear you. If you want, I could always shout back when you shout at me. But would that solve anyone's problem? Your guess is as good as mine.
