Sure, but that's why you lead them out of being sheep. I think most people, even people who are regarded as wards of the state, can do that.

I have a friend's fiance who is disabled with mental illness. She's struggling to learn independence, but she's getting it (finally moved out from abusive parents). She doesn't need a God to correct that, just some damn self confidence and the realization that (for the most part) she can make it on her own with little assistance.

Compared to all the other permanent welfare queens, you can really tell the difference that it's mostly just attitude.
