Miss, I don't think you understand the problem. This has nothing to do with being nice, it's simply a technical issue. You must first have consciousness to in order to even understand the difference between accepting and rejecting something. Therefore, the gift of consciousness is not something you can simply reject – or if you did, you'd never even know that you did.

Asbestos is not like that. A house doesn't have consciousness, therefore it cannot choose to accept or reject asbestos. I however do have have consciousness and I can and will say no.

But that just reinforces my theory that it is not a "gift" but a burden or a "curse" that is imposed. Gifts can not be imposed
