I'll say this because it is very relevant to what you just said. The point imo of growing up is educating yourself. People come from all different molds. You saw that in the ultra conservative atmosphere you just came from. They believe what they do because they are more than likely products of their environment. If they were to be thrust into a different mold they will probably view things quite a bit differently. Not to say that any side is correct, but everyone comes from different paths if that makes any sense whatsoever?
Very true but that's where having an open mind, and being willing to adapt and change your life philosophy and beliefs when life gives you the opportunity to grow and become educated in new ways. IMO if we stay stuck in our basic upbringing and beliefs, we can never achieve our true potential as an individual.
