If we want to raise liberal public dialogue, it starts with humility, with our own personal humility. It starts with ourselves recognizing the possibility that nor to how passionate we are, we could be wrong, we could be wrong.
And maybe each of us had wanted few things that we think it is impossibly wrong about genocides for example. That is not a debatable issue. But you know what, the problem is the most because we have 20 or 25 issues on what we think we could possibly wrong and that is where the problem arises.
We do not just have one or two apart separating out the one intuitional which we think there is no possibility of error, I think we have to be very humble about other things, and humility means recognizing in everyday conversations like this one, the possibility of error and therefore, listen what the other side has the say and listen to it in a serious and thoughtful way.
But we can only raise the level of our dialogue if little things that take the bumpers took us for our cars. I really mean that various certainly but the buffers stick our world is a world of slogans and as a world that does not care to hear debate. It is remarkably wonderful symbol that bumpers because they are on back of the car. It is the personal that course facing away from a person even bumpers sticker is though to say, here is my viewed is not debatable. You read it I am through discussing the matter.
That is very dangerous and it is very scary. I think when we take the bumpers stickers off our car and hatred out of our voices. We will already have taken a big step toward improving our public dialogue.
As out of fantasy in which then I am talking head on the news anyway, just report the news but that is just a fantasy.
