The Do-Gooders Who Got a Hard Lesson in the Existence of Evil

By Jeannie DeAngelis August 19, 2018

In 2001, believing he was Superman and could fly, a third-grade boy named Julian Roman attempted to jump rooftops in the Bronx. Julian died after slipping and smashing into an air conditioner protruding from an apartment window below. At the time of Julian's death, in Manalapan, New Jersey, a boy named Jay Austin was cultivating a Superman mentality similar to the one that cost Julian his life.

Born in New York, Jay grew up in Monmouth County, attended the University of Delaware, and earned a master's degree from Georgetown University. It was at Georgetown that Jay met fellow unicorn-chaser Lauren Geoghegan. Austin, a vegan, spent his days advocating for sustainable living, worked for the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) during the Obama administration, and owned a trendy micro-house he parked in Washington, D.C.

In 2017, Jay decided to follow in Julian Roman's footsteps and tempt fate. At the time, Austin wrote on his bicycle blog that "[t]here's magic out there, in this great big beautiful world." Apparently, Jay believed that "wishing for kind human beings" supernaturally creates kind human beings. So, to prove that his brand of "magic" had power, he and girlfriend Lauren gave two weeks' notice and embarked on a cycling journey.

In the second year of the couple's intercontinental bike trek, on a quest to prove that those perceived to be evil for beheading enemies with hunting knives, drowning cages full of helpless men, and burning people alive just "hold values and beliefs and perspectives different than our own," Jay and Lauren pedaled into ISIS recruitment territory.............Read more


My Take - And with thinking like that ..... and the idea that evil is a make-believe concept.......What could possibly go wrong?
The trouble with leftists minds are the fantasies they have swallowed hook, line and sinker, that contaminate their ability to see the world as it really is.  Sadly, the better educated they are the deeper they fall into the fantasy world of the left.  As a result they end up in leadership roles promoting fantasy versus history and reality. 
American universities are fever swamps of toxic thinking and if these bad things only happened to them I wouldn't much care, as they paid the penalty for their thinking. Unfortunately, these are the kind of fantasies they promote to the public, and then the public pays the penalty.
Ask the French and the Swedes.
