Years ago, the greatest minds told us that that world was flat. They told us they had proof. They told us they had evidence. And yet, they were wrong. What was it that proved them wrong? It was curiosity and critical thinking. That same philosophy can be used to think through the issues of our time. The first step in this process is to take what we know and talk about it.

Years ago, the greatest minds told us that that world was flat. They told us they had proof. They told us they had evidence. And yet, they were wrong. What was it that proved them wrong? It was curiosity and critical thinking. That same philosophy can be used to think through the issues of our time. The first step in this process is to take what we know and talk about it. Then we can take what others know and think about it. If we take the time to listen to others, we can see that we're the same as those that we believe are against us. We breathe the same air, have the same struggles, and hope for a better world just like the person we despise across the aisle from us. The difference between us is the journey we've taken to get to where we are.With the current political climate, it's necessary for us to look at the issues and ourselves with a critical mind. By this, I mean that we have to be more accepting of other ideas. When we look at what we hold dear, we think our thoughts are the only right and moral way to look at the issue. We can't imagine the possibility that others can have a difference of opinion. Are they so blind that they can't see the truth in front of their eyes? It's so easy to see the truth if you just think it through.But if you take the time to think it through yourself, you'd see that yours is not the only way. Just because someone else may not agree with you doesn't make them wrong. It also doesn't make you right. It just makes them different. It doesn't matter what the issue is; you have your opinions just like others have their opinions. Abortion, climate change, economics, gun control, immigration, religion, race, no matter what issue you hold dear, someone is going to disagree with you. You can think that you have all the facts on your side, but do you? Do you have proof? Do you have evidence that no one can disprove? Are you wrong?It's time to have the conversation.
