I have the simple answer - You can be completely wrong or upside down in your way of thinking, but if you are sincere enough, people will accept it anyway.

This is what I am seeing. Anyone else?

Never saw the honorable Rev Jesse Jackson SR give a sincere apology about "Hymie town" yet, he has been absolved of all sins. The other honorable Rev James Meeks calls certain people "house nigggers" and was forgiven and forgotten. Clinton was a master of it though......

-S"Ways of thinking", in my opinion, should be an evolution. The problem isn't so much sincerity as it is the way people manipulate ideas and data to fit their preconcieved notions.

I personally believe that each of us should constantly be challenging our opinions. That's what I call "intellectual honesty". We shouldn't just sit back and assume that something be have believed for 20 years is true just because we've believed it for that long.

This doesn't mean we're all going to come to the same conclusions. It just makes us all better able to support our conclusions.

For it to really have the right effect you need to have a video clip of you shaking your finger at the audience... :yep:

I heard a summary statement once that "Sincerity is no guarantee for truth". I agree!

"Man has not evolved one inch from the slime which spawned him."

I don't know who made the above quote but I think of it often after viewing the news.

but he was probably quoting someone else.:D

Whoever it was was pretty close to the truth.
