Good to hear you, glad to be back...
Dinah,
I am struggling with a fundamental issue. As I see things, a person's feelings are not enough to sustain life. If my feelings conflict with other peoples' feelings, I want to say, "So what? Feelings don't solve problems, people do. Also, feelings are too easily changed to worry about, yet the only final resolution to peoples conflicts when the only differences are feelings, is violence, or at least coercion. What sense does that make?
I don't feel the same as some other person, so the remedy is violence? How about logic and reason and tolerance? No body dies then.
I was pbc'ed for studying these notions on the Faith Board. Have I been civil enough this time?
