As a kid who wasn't into sports at school I felt almost alienated at times whereas in the theatre community there was this amazing sense of camaraderie. Early on we would go to rehearsals with my dad and I was like the mascot for the backstage crew. That was a big part of my childhood so I dreamed of one day doing a play in London.
It is possible that mankind is on the threshold of a golden age but if so it will be necessary first to slay the dragon that guards the door and this dragon is religion.
Instead of being presented with stereotypes by age sex color class or religion children must have the opportunity to learn that within each range some people are loathsome and some are delightful.
Every formula of every religion has in this age of reason to submit to the acid test of reason and universal assent.
