Robbery is not always tangible. When influential people such as teachers, entertainers, politicians, news media, and informational website editors promote deception they are actually stealing the truth from people’s minds. People privileged enough to have gravitated to a position of notoriety, prominence and clout need follow the most stringent standard of accuracy.
Moreover in today’s environment we should remind ourselves of sayings like:
“Buyer beware” or “Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me”.
If someone is preaching hatred walk away.
If they are teaching acceptance and love pull up a chair.
