Teresa - I agree, although "right" and "wrong" is obviously a sticky distinction to make sometimes...especially as our judgements and actions affect others, and not just our personal philosophy or opinion.TThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16764763171009592460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8669777526246719363.post-18301408075266081782011-06-25T15:42:09.979+02:002011-06-25T15:42:09.979+02:00To weigh in with my opinions on the questions you ...To weigh in with my opinions on the questions you ask...I don't feel that understanding the opposition's position puts our principles in jeopardy. On the contrary, I would say that understanding our enemies' point of view is critical. By understanding their point of view, we can better judge their goals. By understanding what it is they are striving for, we are that much closer to compromise. If anyone in "our camp" is bothered by the fact that our opinions might change by understanding the opposition, I would have to assume that they are incredibly vain to think that they are always right. Only through gaining knowledge can we hope to be on the right side of any issue. For I would argue that "my side and their side" are far less important than the "right side and wrong side". I always want to align myself on the right side, and if that means I need to change my stance, so be it.Teresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12389030369421055574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8669777526246719363.post-54825553863685312712011-06-22T21:31:08.839+02:002011-06-22T21:31:08.839+02:00Oh Thad!

I definitely sense a "Titze Christmas Card Photo" coming from this trip -- I'd pick the one labeled "hiking" in your album. What a lovely picture of the four of you! Keep up the good work! I'm so proud of my little Thadley in this big adventure and the work you're doing!Melissa G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07706533820255282569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8669777526246719363.post-81040819382226861602011-06-22T21:29:23.367+02:002011-06-22T21:29:23.367+02:00This comment has been removed by the author.Melissa G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07706533820255282569noreply@blogger.com
