None of the bigotry of either side (can there really only be TWO?) can change the realities of life or the events that transpire therein. Take my word for it; do not try to confuse anyone here with the word TRUTH because you will then discover one of the most inappropriately used word seemingly in the ‘worlds’ languages. No, let’s see if we can try and stay with reality … here.
Why is it ALWAYS 2 enemies, right or wrong, good or bad, correct or not, light or dark or even true or not? It seems as though we are not even allowed any slack with such mundane things as possible or not, believable or not, practical or not, feasible or not or even provable or not, go figure. Doesn’t make much sense to me but seems accurate nonetheless.
I believe that I have much middle ground (many DON’T) in my views of the world, Nature and the universe. There is of course a condition (but just the ONE): I can prove my beliefs (or I would not have them) or I can postulate what I can’t prove based on “the scientific method” of problem solving … If you cannot or refuse to, then we will have little to say to each other. Guess my feathers are still a bit ruffled, sorry.
One hears all the time of Moderate Middle America, of people who see the fallacy of going too far one way or the other … but where are they? My best WAG is that most of them are in the same hide-holes as all those evasive moderate Muslims, blacks, Hispanics, whites, homosexuals, infanticide nuts, atheists (that work for YOU), thumpers (that works for me), the judiciary or our governmental benefactors (our employees). Must be some hellacious underground complex, wish I were there, hehehe, NOT. Could go further with moderate unions, liberals of ANY stripe, republicans, educators or … well I made my point (I hope).
It all boils down to this … “YOU are right … and everybody else is wrong”. I do not understand how this environment could lend itself to solve anything we face at all, do you? We are not allowed a middle any more IMO.
