Recently, I had been wondering about my perspective, generally assuming that I was like most people, and that most people were relatively normal. But after recently considering the TV show "The Tudors" I started to wonder. The voiceover of the main character at the beginning of the credits suggests that the show is bringing a unique or new perspective on the story of King Henry VIII of England. The only thing is, it almost perfectly illustrates my view of Henry VIII & most of the principal figures in his drama, including Queen Katherine, St. Thomas More, St. John Fisher, Cromwell, Queen Mary I, Cardinal Woolsey, Eustace Chapuys & Anne Boleyn. So if this supposedly different perspective matches my own, maybe MY perspective is unusual? Then today, there was a quick poll (although it is different now) about the most recent WoT book, and when I made my selection, I saw I had picked the least chosen option. With all this in mind, I compiled a list of things where my opinion might be out of touch with the mainstream. Do you agree with me that the following are massively overrated, and the world (would be/would have been) a better place without them or if their technically necessary role was minimalized and given much less attention?
