you can accuse conservatives of many things, "smart" isn't one of them.
I'm not sure If "smart" is the best term but Lyin' Brian could be pretty smooth!

A great man once said,
"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character. I have a dream today!"
We a further way from that dream than ever.
Lefties judge people by the colour of their skin and gender with character being meaningless.
Maybe someday Dr.King, maybe someday.
That at least is proof righties have brains...The Right have brain damage!
Ignore is a great function of this site.Now try that in English.
It's only been around 55 years, and 3 generations.I'll admit, there are people on the left who likely do this.
And there are people on the right who judge people by the same things.
Unfortunately, I don't see any of that changing anytime soon.

What made this last generation so dillusional and hate filled?
When was the last time you've seen kids playing in the streets in groups.
When we were kids the last thing we wanted to do was sit alone indoors in seclusion.
It was punishment to be stuck indoors unable to socialize with our friends.
The streets and parks were our social media.
1/3 of youth have no spirituality. How do you fill that emptiness?
I wouldn't want to be an imprisoned child for 18 years. How do you discover who you are when cut loose at 18? You can't so you struggle desperately to find an identity and latch on to the first thing that makes you feel included even if it's a jaded ideology.

That isn't spirituality. That is community involvement. It's noble but sharing is purly human nature.Someone's belief, or not, in anything spiritual doesn't make them a better person. That "emptiness" can be filled with lots of things that has nothing to do with spirituality. My brother's family don't really have any spirituality, yet my SIL and niece constantly volunteer for things like food banks, helping the homeless, making meals, etc.

You might be tieing Religion to spirituality and that's okay.
Spirituality goes far beyond Religion.
Without experiencing something, how the hell would you know it was missing from your life?
It appears your family has spirituality and put it to great use in their community , they should be complimented. Organized religion is necessary for spirituality.I agree with everything but your 'spirituality part.

But the rest, sadly, I do agree with. And am thankful that my brother and SIL are raising my niece to be an amazing person despite the social media BS.
That should read not necessary.It appears your family has spirituality and put it to great use in their community , they should be complimented. Organized religion is necessary for spirituality.
Spirituality isn't an action, a string of words or a lifestyle.Sharing isn't just purely human nature.
So I guess then I should ask to clarify what you mean by Spirituality?
I also think that the emptiness can still be filled by what you call 'community involvement', and thus do not necessarily need to have someone be spiritual.
