A guy on eBay finds a terrific price on the camera. He patiently awaits the delivery of his item through the mail mail, and when it arrives it turns out to be a rock inside of a little box rather than the $2800 camera he presumably bought for only $850. Later on down the road the road they catch the perpetrators and question them. One of his remarks is “Why would you think anyone would sell a $2800 camera to you for $850, DO YOU THINK I’M STUPID?”. The victim replies to the man “Human beings do stupid things all the time, so sure why not? What could be mistaken as stupidity couldn’t reality be desperation it be desperation -among other things”. It’s true, people do stupid things all the time -that is if that’s the way you want to look at it. People sell things all the time for ridiculous prices and people pray on that and then make a ton of money. Happens every day! Now you or I may not be the benefactor, the person at the right place it’s not the right place and the right time, with the money to capitalize on a situation like this high from but there are people out there in the world that make a living by doing things like this. Pawn shops for example. Well it’s true that it’s not in people’s nature to take a loss or give things away, It’s equally true that for whatever reason it happens all the time. It may be one in a 100 or it may be 1 and a 1000 but when you think about 7 billion people on this planet… it amounts to quite a bit. Unfortunately, it’s like the lottery, it only comes in along here and there. Every now and again somebody on eBay gets a great deal out of a 100. Most of the time you pay or you get scammed. I’m speaking of high dollar items like these cameras that are very hot right now.
I’ve never been smart that way!
I can only speak for myself personally: When a very very young infant child I’m a child experiences yet considerable trauma at the hands of thanks of a human being; in such a fashion as to feel abandoned or abandoned or forgotten by anything or anyone; he forms two very deep and powerful perspectives/mindsets:
1. A deep-seated regard for man
2. Very little regard for God, to the extent of disdain perhaps
What I mean to say is during this period, who had the greater impact on the child? 🤔
