As we listen to polls telling us who is hot in politics and art are we persuaded to follow or think on our own? I believe we should stop and think what is right before we follow as sheep to what could be our own cliff. This is the lesson we can derive from the biblical account of the building of the golden calf in which group think got people to do what they knew fairly close to the surface was wrong. That is also why 1 G-D believe is so important because sometimes you must rebel from the crowd to do what is right but even if you feel alone during such periods you can be assured that your creator is still on your side and that support is bigger/better then any crowd against you.
