On a deeper note, it is important to separate legitimate ideas from prejudicial garbage. It is also vital to listen to where people are coming from, to understand their concepts and language in order to best change mistaken perspectives. Our language has become like a field of landmines so it is important, if one is to be effective, to avoid being shut out and cubby-holed by our use of words. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
