Is Pluto a man or a dog?

It is bewildering to behold the metastasis of intolerant belief systems. Groups of humans who agree on a protocol of behavior and categorize other systems as obviously defective, sometimes with extreme prejudice.

There are many, many, many of these "street gangs" currently in active existence, as a matter of fact, there are more street gangs than supermarkets... perhaps comrades are more vital than food.

Some street gangs are tolerant of others. Some, like wild animals, will attack on prolonged eye contact. History is brimming with episodes of ethnic cleansing (genocide) by street gangs.

Few are not affiliated with a street gang, there are many types. It's possible to be in a street gang without knowing. Careful awareness and scrutiny are required to observe oneself promulgating his/her gang's beliefs on others, evaluating others and their actions as if one were absolute, or inflicting pain or humiliation on others outside the gang. It requires half a lifetime or more to learn to recognize the consequences of your actions. It's kind of like figuring out your reflection for the first time.

The differences in the various belief systems can be large or small. Proving a system to be the genuine truth is a common activity, and while members often agree on the obvious nature of the evidence for their gang to be the alpha-dogs, it's like trying to argue whether Pluto is a man or a dog. The creator(s) of Pluto may not have decided.

Man might not have had creator(s)...
