Don't forget, ZNP. That the atmosphere in Texas was much more authoritarian. I was naive, as Ohio said. I took everything the "brothers" said to heart. I wanted to be a good brother. So if they taught something, I tried my best to believe it, even if it didn't add up. I often questioned things, but I would take the brunt of dissonance in myself. Instead of saying, "This doesn't make any sense, so I'm going to forget it," I would think there was something wrong with me.
That's my point. That attitude messed me up. Some of it was just personality. A lot of people have natural "street sense." I must have been home sick the day God handed that out because I never had much. I had to develop it on my own. Still it amazes me that young people will often naturally have more sense than I still do.
