Common Sense vs Uncommon Sense
OK, Revelation!
Seems that there is a serious lack of common sense being used today. I see kids and the "parents" daily that either do not have common sense or they aren't aware of it. I guess you can't teach common sense but when you look at it in a cause and affect situation, it 's either there or not. Maybe experience is the foundation of common sense or the sharing of experiences by some one you trust who has shared their adventures with you. I don't know. I guess you could look at the idea that common sense is tied to logic some how. Of course it is but don't you have to have some facts to base that logic on or at least a thought process that uses the facts as facts and not likes, guesses or conveniences? Of course some facts or maybe faith in facts and where do you get the facts or beliefs that propagate the thought process? Education, family, friends, books, genes, TV, movies, God?
OK! Walden philosophy...
Common sense is the crowd's decision, the average of what every one thinks is correct. It's based on what the average action or reaction would be by the masses of human beings. I mean you might think about something different than I but we might come to the same conclusion because we base the decision on the facts we know, but how we interpret the facts may cause us to reach a different conclusion.
So I present to you a new term. "Uncommon sense", the thought process that is not governed by the average way of thinking but the "other" way. I give you God's way of thinking. God's way can be so uncommon or "unaverage" as the world thinks. I think we might call it "Unworldly" thought.
I think "uncommon sense" might be pretty easy to recognize because if it is based on God's principles, that are by the way unchangeable. They should be a Godly expression that can be traced back to the uniqueness of God and his attributes.
Christian are called out to be separate to the world and be "uncommon" in their thought processes.
PRETTY GOOD HUH??
