I am back in classes and read this from G. K. Chesterton from his work The Common Man last night, so I'm sharing it with you to get your thoughts.
...man is always influenced by thought of some kind, his own or somebody else's; that of somebody he trusts or that of somebody he never heard of, thought at first, second or third hand; thought from exploded legends or unverified rumours; but always something with the shadow of a system of values and a reason for preference. A man does test everything by something. The question here is whether he has ever tested the test.
Intriguing question indeed.
Do I think for myself?
What is my test?
Do I test the test?
Do you test the test?
