I believe that sports are there only to control the masses. I believe that we are all slaves... I believe the U.S. Federal Government is illegal. I believe all sorts of things that no one agrees with. People seem to hate me for it and think there is something wrong with me... Am I delusional? Am I just seeing the world as a darker and scarier place then what it is? What if I'm wrong about everything? Am I wasting my life on this? Am I actually free? And if I am right, then is everything hopeless? Should I have just stayed ignorant. If I had listened to the authorities, they wouldn't have persecuted me this way. They never had a right. Just because they were illegitimate I despised them, and so I am eternally punished them. They deliberately tried to break me because I could see through them... Some people are just knowing the truth. We are called anti-authoritarians... We are persecuted, drugged, and locked away. Even when we are still children. But sometimes I wonder if I am right, or am I raging against a machine that isn't there... I need some clarity before this destroys my mind. I mean worse than what it is. I have begun to fear that there will soon be purges...
You are not alone in your beliefs about the US government. Please PM me and we can talk about this. I don't want to get political on this part of the board.

But overall, about the confusion, its best to find a rational way to find truth, keep investigating and I really believe we need to question authority. If they are correct, they will have good, rational reasons for you to support their ideas. If not, it might be good to seek out other teachers. Don't be discouraged, though, to be alone in your beliefs is not to be wrong.
Thanks for this!
