Reply #23: I don't disagree with your assessment of our capacities

[kristopher]

I'm just add that there can be in each of us the fundamental elements of such actions. How well are we equipped to judge the degree of our own biases and prejudices? You said a brutal and wrong thing that attributed evil intent where there is none; yet you object that I've attributed malign motives to you unfairly and untruly.


I don't attack your intellect, however by saying that you don't understand. You clearly don't and you aren't interested in addressing that lack. That's fair enough and honest enough for me. So please, feel free to consider yourself intelligent, you have my permission...

Arrogance is a common American trait that we are much too often blind to; so we can go forth on that point as kindred spirits.
