I am not that creative of a person. Yes, I write and have written some fiction and such but I have more of an analytic mind. I like to deal with facts, numbers and hard data. The conclusions that I've reached are driven by columns of pluses and minuses. I'm not going to lie, much of my belief system and philosophical views are based on rational and scientific thinking. Most, if not all of the the work that I've done all my life was driven by data and information. When you understand what the data tells you, it affects your world view in a lot of different ways. For example, data from the FBI and other sources state that the most violent city in America is not Chicago or New York; but the tiny city of Bessemer, Alabama. For a city of only 26,000 people, the chance of you being a victim of a violent crime is 1 in 30. In a place like New York city, the chances of you being a victim of a violent crime is only 1 in 192. The reason is because of population density.
