Christopher Hitchen’s quote here .is actually just what I missed on my latest post. See? I even posses self criticism skills, naturally from my self. Unfortunately, we are a big, big, big, minority…
To most people the point or pur
pose of discussion is being right/correct . Only then they receive the feeling of having “won ” the debate.
To me the point or purpose of discussion is to try to get as close to the actual truth/reality/facts as possible. I can’t accomplish this goal, by ignoring legitimate arguments or valuable evidence from my opponent, and not looking at the implications it as on every other side-aspect of the subject too.
I’d just never come up with any creative, inventive, new insights or innovating original solutions, because nothing is merely black or white. There are thousands of grey shades in between..
Not being able to admit your wrongs? It’s a sign of ignorance, not of intelligence!
Always remember:
It is OK…
… To Disagree
For myself disagreeing with my views is – in fact – that what makes me get interested in you…
Free thinking is easy, once you have escaped all needs for any material benefits ! Being ‘poor’ or ‘filled’ with success doesn’t change your ‘physical Being’ !
