“Denial is not a River in Egypt”

Wildman always used to say that people do not laugh enough.  There are no truer words ever spoken! 

The phrase “Denial is not a river in Egypt” is a play on words, using the homophone “Denial” for “the Nile,” which is a well-known river in Egypt. The phrase humorously highlights the psychological defense mechanism where someone refuses to accept reality or facts.  It is no surprise this play on words would be uttered in my direction by the other side.  Goodness gracious, what a great belly laugh I received from that as I thought to myself, “well are they not just the epitome of the queer little bird!”

All poking aside, were you aware that according to the American Psychological Association a strong majority (82%) of the population in America were worried that people may be basing their values and opinions on false or inaccurate information?  Obviously, no surprise here seeing we have been living through the evolution of America where the systematically weakened mindset has created a political climate chuck full of ‘feelings’ and ‘emotional discord’.  Suppose it simply took this long for the majority of the population to come to terms with the ideological extremism to which originally were treated as a ‘fad’ of the times.  

For so many, it seems to have taken a good long while to pull their heads out from their own day-to-day events to even want to admit what was actually happening to the American population and accept the facts and reality.  Only then, can the tides turn back from this age of pandering to the discord and emotional extremism that plagues our country.

What sez you?
