But, satus is very hard to pin-point to a certain group of people. We have the ever aparent "social class" which is mostly based on money and power . Then on the younger side of things we have the " clicks" in high school. But, these clicks and social standing, i dont believe, are what give people there self-worth. With-in those diffrent groups ther is standing, or specific roles, and based on a role a person might find self-worth. But, everyone wants to feel needed in the world; so, to say that satus is what gives people their self-worth is a liltle to general. It is the idea or thought that one is needed that gives a person the relief that they DO have worth. So society is not the stick that tells us weather we have self-worth it is the stick that divides us into groups and classes. With-in those classes we get our self-worth from the role we play. So my question is .... should we be put in those diffrent classes? I believe to spread the good news of JC we should bridge the classes, but not brake. because i think god put those classes in place to add order. Because if we didnt have classes or groups there would be to many leaders and to many fights. Status and self-worth are very much related.
