August Thought of the Month

"You gotta write your own hymms or they ain't worth singing."

~ Ray Bradbury from The Day it Rained Forever

Rod Serling, famous for his series, The Twilight Zone and Night Gallery, recognized the evil of stifling individuality. He has multiple episodes in both shows depicting how wrong conformity can be, even if wrapped in an appealing package. Dictator characters praise and enforce conformity, anyone who is different is either forced to comply or cast out, even killed. That is the death of a society.
