When the world isn’t always round

Ima­gine a world where we could choose who we lived with. Let’s think about that. Wouldn’t that be won­der­ful? Well, if you think that’s pos­sible, you’re pro­ba­bly an empe­ror or dic­ta­tor in the making. The pro­blem with that is that 1. We don’t live in a magi­cal world. 2. The people you would choose might not neces­sa­ri­ly choose you. What a shame, no? Not quite.

Free­dom exists at many levels and situa­tions like the many shoo­tings, inclu­ding the one at Poly­tech­nique Mont­réal, some­times bring about radi­cal solu­tions. Unfor­tu­na­te­ly, human beings do not cope well with radi­cal changes. Des­pite the fact that we are rela­ti­ve­ly flexible, this flexi­bi­li­ty has its limits.

Recent­ly, Que­bec govern­ment offi­cials said they wan­ted to make people declare that they are pre­gnant, in order to keep an eye on bad fami­lies. This situa­tion real­ly makes you think, whe­ther you agree with it or not. Do not believe that sim­ply because people have mana­ged to get into a posi­tion in an orga­ni­sa­tion that you res­pect, that they auto­ma­ti­cal­ly receive an injec­tion of know­ledge and that they can replace your judgement.

Your jud­ge­ment will always be the best jud­ge­ment for you because it sets you free. This means that you must deli­be­ra­te­ly allow your­self to be influen­ced by all of huma­ni­ty to make your deci­sions. Iso­la­tion of thought is the sis­ter of ignorance.
