Moderates are comfortable going through life in a daze, half alive, hoping that their problems will be taken care of. Moderates think the Ten Commandments are too hard on people, too demanding and judgmental. The Ten Commandments after all are not merely suggestions but commands to do the right thing. Moderates think the Constitution is flexible as well and that it can be changed to suit the political whim of the anyone who wants something from the system. To believe otherwise is controversial.
Moderates are neither great dreamers, scientists, engineers, writers, poets, actors or politicians.
Moderates are uncomfortable with talent or those who have the conviction of their beliefs. They avoid people who are passionate about ideas because that disturbs the bland and uniform world they seek. Moderates rarely achieve great things nor do they fail at trying to do great things. Moderates are uncomfortable with greatness. Mediocrity is the fruit of the moderate's faith.
