So easy to get carried away with it, you can use words like denial and rationalization to summarily dismiss everything the other party is saying. I think every group does that to some degree.
Yeah, perhaps. I dunno.
I think we can be at arm's length from many of our beliefs, if we choose to have that kind of a relationship with ourselves, and others. I'm not sure its helpful to generalize that we're all in someways victims of the limitations of our own beliefs. Certainly it can happen for some of us, maybe many of us, but I don't agree we all somehow have blood on our hands because we embrace beliefs of whatever...
