In a previous post Tim has made a plea for aid of some small sort to help someone convicted of a crime in her country.

Now I am not looking for the right or wrong of her treatment in her country. This is not about an individual. It was the over all concept of his post that brought this to mind.

What I am wondering is, why do we as outsiders continually insist on bringing our values to other cultures?

What makes us so right and them so wrong?

Why do we not see fit to live by the apparent standards we set for the rest of the world?

Life is great for me... Most of the time... But then I meet people online... Very few are real friends... Many say they are but know nothing of what it means... Some say they are, but are so shallow...
