What if your mind was an open book?

[TheProject]

And everyone else's was too? Instead of thinking one thing, and saying another, everyone would already know the truth?

Would this make life better or worse? Do you think you could handle the all-out honesty?

I could handle the honesty...Not soooo sure if other's could handle mine!

I used to think about this alot when I was younger. I'm of sort of mixed opinion on this. On one hand I try to be open and aboveboard, but at the same time I was raised with the adage "If you can't say someting nice , don't say anything at all"- so I tend to keep my mouth shut except in matters of unfairness, etc.
Don't know if things in general would be better- but they sure would be more interesting............

EXACTLY!!

Most people think they want to hear the truth, but in reality can not face it.

I think there would be a lot more gay people on this board, even though the population of this board would remain constant.

I would probably get slapped a lot.

Road rage would go through the roof! LOL!

I look at it this way: if this were a change that happened overnight, people would be shocked at first.

But then, as everyone got more used to the idea, things would become less shocking.

So, you might get your face slapped at first, but it'd stop after a while.

Everyone needs privacy
you can't stand whith the world individual problems
the values of honesty and privacy colide when they are extreme
i suppose your hipothesis is not ecological !
