Not talking about obvious things like crime.

I mean things that people just accept as part of life.

Things everyone does, but when you really think about it, it actually makes no sense.

    That one got to me at a young age. Got in trouble for it. I just one day realized that I wasn’t reciting a song, I was verbalizing a promise and that nobody had explained to me why before they taught me to do it.

    Yeah it’s wierd shit. A pagan friend of mine always thought that words that you ritualize daily are the same thing as a spell

      That’s the premise of a lot of spirituality, concentration & recitation. Makes you wonder which god asks for that daily pledge…
