I was raised on the concept of “fairness,” but
lately I’ve wondered if fairness is a notion that should be lumped together
with the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny. Read about it (here).
This reminds me so much of the people who don't want Syrian refugees here. They say they don't want secret terrorists coming through, but good thing nobody theorize that communist spies were sneaking in the U.S. via Southeast Asian refugees because my wife's parents would have never made it here to give birth to her years later.
But I think all know why they also don't want them here. The Syrians aren't white and very few of them are Christian

Valuable thoughts here and a meditation on identity worth reading. Thanks.
