Common sense

common sense; our lost intellect.

As a kid on the farm my grandfather advised me against putting my hand on a hot stove in order to avoid getting burned and to never walk behind a horse because it might be skittish and its kick could be fatal.

I read this week that the HIV virus and AIDS is resurging in Cobb County. It must be increasing elsewhere.

Applying my grandfather's wisdom AIDS could be stopped dead in its tracks, simply avoid the source of the HIV virus. It isn't complicated. It seems illogical to me that monogamy and abstinence isn't stressed earlier in schools and in homes before the effects of a liberal philosophy takes hold.
