I quoted the wrong post. I meant it in reply to this by Casper:
Turn around and tell me where is the love of truth took Laura and her family?
We are all with her, but in fact we are away, we share kilometers.
Will they ever find out the truth if there is no hope?
I do not know, but I think it is sad and tragic that seekers of truth have so many enemies for the neck.
Mr. Premise said:It seems to me that the love of truth has taken Laura and her family to great places. Not always easy places but great ones. Greatness is not easy. I think many of us would say that gaining an objective view of things with the help of a network has made our lives better.celenajohnson23 said:"Martin Luther King said:

Elibert Hubbard:
Hope in reality is one of the greatest evils, because it prolongs man's suffering."
I think as long as we are looking for salvation without work, we will cling to hope...as long as someone can GIVE us answers, we cling to hope
Maybe hope is just something that we use to procrastinate in the work or to avoid it all together.
MLK and EH really have a point...we will keep looking outside ourselves for answers to questions because that is the sad norm. We all want things handed to us with as little effort as possible. Avoiding the work will prolong man's current state of turmoil.
The only thing worth hoping for may be time to gain knowledge...Maybe hope has more than one side depending on the perspective/knowledge an individual may have?
