All too often valuable discussion through stubborn modern ideologies is the great enemy of the truth. It shuts off logic without feeling, very often is the lie; deliberate, dishonest, contrived - which perpetuates the persistent, unrealistic myths that have been foisted upon those who would believe. Yet all who come to share their thoughts do so expecting to be treated ethically decent and fair with good nature being the rule rather than the exception. To be treated as a real person, whom they are, and not the suggestive “perhaps” the machine makes them appear to be. Theirs is an honest attempt to communicate their thoughts and idealism about what happened. And no matter how arcane, no matter how disproportionate to any other view, it should be viewed as either an attempt to understand, or perhaps even a greater understanding than what we ourselves could ever imagine. To shut that door and forever close it to their supposition forever condemns our knowledge to what is not known. And there are many, which no one can deny. Yet this is consistently and persistently done, here and elsewhere. It is stubborn and deliberate. And it shuts off, shuts out other people’s logic without feeling and leads to unethical indecent and unfair assertions upon theirs and other’s characters, which those who perpetrate it know will derail the discussion to their favor and shed an unfavorable light upon the person who try’s to advance any notion that is unfavorable to their way of thinking. This as I stated, is the great enemy of the truth. For the only truth that matters to those who perpetrate this dishonor upon those who would, should or could participate here, is their own. And in this they feel no honor to share what isn’t known, nor will they let those who would advance it, in honor speak for themselves without ridicule.
