GET CONCIOUS ON THE CONCIOUS CORNER

MARTIN LUTHER KING
I was born in a very congenial home situation. My parents have always lived together very intimately, and I can hardly remember a time that they ever argued (my father happens to be the kind who just won't argue) or had any great falling out. The community in which I was born was quite ordinary in terms of social status. No one in our community had attained any great wealth. Crime was at a minimum, and most of our neighbors were deeply religious. One may ask at this point, why discuss such factors as the above in dealing with one's religious development? The answer to this question lies in the fact that the above factors were highly significant in determining my religious attitudes. It is quite easy for me to think of a God of love mainly because I grew up in a family where love was central and where lovely relationships were present. It is quite easy for me to think of the universe as basically friendly, mainly because of my uplifting hereditary and environmental circumstances. It is quite easy for me to lean more toward optimism than pessimism about human nature, mainly because of my childhood experience.
