RE: Woodstock versus Charlottesville

in #philosophy7 years ago

@gwiss I appreciate how you are willing to put yourself out there. Also, the amount of thought and effort that you pour into posts and comments. I do the same. It does not mean that we are always right. However, one must possess a willingness to make mistakes as it is a vital learning tool. Be well.

Sort:  

Honesty, meaning saying what you mean, and humility, meaning being willing to admit that your thoughts are the best you have at this time but that conceptions can and do change, are from my perspective two vital ingredients to a healthy society. Politicians who follow the wind are societal poison, but unfortunately only a small percentage of the population seem to have the capacity to smell them. My hope is that we can all have honest discourse on this platform -- I've learned much about reality by having calm discussions with others over the years. Hopefully more conversations to come!
