4. My dear MoseyWalker....
What do I see?

Well.......I see a place where I am completely happy, without burdens...

Where I can live and love freely.....

Express myself freely.....

And where democratic traditions thrive!

Where the environment is respected......

And so on, like that........

Well, a girl can dream, can't she?

:hi:

7. A world with condemnation
or subjective "morality" or "values" or "ethics".

Simply a world where people try very hard not to hurt other people--physically, emotionally, or otherwise. A place where, when someone hurts someone else accidentally, they are genuinely apologetic for it, and the other person is genuinely forgiving, without holding back or carrying a grudge. A world where nobody claims to know the Absolute Truth about anything. A world where there is no such thing as Absolutism about *anything*, save for sincerely trying not to cause harm to other people. No religion, no dogma, no activism, because it isn't needed. Acceptance of different lifestyles and worldviews and opinions without reservation or judgement. A world where, if people are against something, they apply their "morality" only to themselves, instead of trying to make it illegal or stigmatized. A utopia where speakers and believers are free to voice their thoughts, and listeners are free to accept or reject them without hostility on the part of either side.

That truly WOULD be paradise.

8. Take me!
I'd like to see sunny, warm weather, year-round...friendly people who don't judge others too harshly, and a lot of fresh pineapple.

Is that too much to ask?
