I'm young (20), and in one way I have fewer experiences than others who are older than me. But in another way, I have seen more of the modern world than they have. My beliefs are based off a world in which my elders are naive because they are sheltered in the warm security of their engrained beliefs, under the blanket of assumption that the standards of morality and standards of rationality are constant.
In my world, and in the hearts of many other young people with me, there is a dismal understanding that the world is rapidly changing and when we try to accept it to the best of our ability we are scolded, or at least ignored, for failing to meet the standards that were set for us.
What do you think?
