<h3>The Chain Armour Called Tradition</h3>

I believe there are good traditions that exist today however some have a backwards impact on society progressing forwards, and I understand how people are entitled to their beliefs, but some people are so devoted that they're not willing to listen to different opinions.

As a group becomes more and more institutionalised, it seems to be more characterised by tradition than it is by sincere beliefs. Tradition is the armour that protects the collective long after its principles have questioned and doubted.

The first beliefs of a collective, over many years, endure lots of strenuous scrutinies. Therefore, it is not merely the beliefs, which hold the collective together, but the common interest.

If the collective desires remain strong, the collective will need to have the capability to battle the wave of doubt that they will receive. By withstanding this onslaught, its resignation will be fortified. On the other hand, if the collective desires are weak, eventually, the collective will divide and dissolve.

<h3>How Easy Is It To Change One's Opinions?</h3>

A collective uses tradition in a similar way to how people use persona; tradition provides the collective with its character and identity. Therefore, the collective goes from sincerity to hypocrisy. It becomes known not for that which it is, but for that which it seems to be.

However, all collectives should, in the long-term, be conveyed to nothing. Tradition can combat centuries of doubt. However, it cannot stand up to idealists. The idealist isn't content with the way things are; the idealist strives to reform reality into the way he believes it should be.

The idealist is an argumentative troublemaker. He exposes the insincerities of a collective. He uncovers the darkness hidden among a collective. The idealist is the prophet; he plants the seed of discontentment.

<h3>The Dreamer And Denier</h3>

The romantic is not one who denies reality; he sees it more unmistakably than most others; he sees its false reverence, its difficult nature and desires to the correct its wrongs. For a very long time, I trust we have mistaken the romantic for the denier. The denier denies reality for lack of concern. The optimist ponders reality as judicious general examinations his enemy and with persistence undermines its very establishment.

The idealist doesn't deny reality. He sees reality clearer than most; he sees the hypocrisy and the devious nature of any collective. For much too long, I feel we've got confused the idealist with the denier. The denier denies reality for the sake of complacency. The idealist studies its opponent and finds its true flaws.
