A bit of purely theoretical thought...

6 billion people and counting.

I give birth to a son hoping that he will be able to support himself in this world.

I give birth to a daughter believing that she will be smart enough to get by.

I instill in them a moral sense that guides them to do unto others...

(In my heart I assert that they are better than those poor people)

(In my heart I know that my kids can beat them to the food)

(In my heart I realize that it cannot but come to this)

God, how possible is it to feed myself without taking food from someone else's mouth?

God forgive me!

Moving, but beware of tautologies that aren't.

Tautologies that aren't moving or tautologies that aren't tautologies?
