A Quote by Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. on culture, faith, and society

A first grader should understand that her or his culture isn’t a rational invention; that there are thousands of other cultures and they all work pretty well; that all cultures function on faith rather than truth; that there are lots of alternatives to our own society...Cultural relativity is defensible, attractive. It’s a source of hope. It means we don’t have to continue this way if we don’t like it.

Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. : American writer
Kurt Vonnegut (1922 - )
