Pride of Inheritance
Living with pride of inheritance is akin to driving with alcohol in blood. Both are fatal, to self and to others.
Explanation: Inheritance refers to values we inherit by our birth, by allegiance to a community and not earn. Nationality, religion, castism are such. If we take pride in these, if we get high on these, we risk not just self but others as well.

The Logic of God
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able?
Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing?
Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing?
Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God?
- Epicurus, Greek Philosopher (341 BCE - 270 BCE)
Musing: Greeks were getting smarter, Christianity made them dumb.
