Topic: Making Changes
In the free world, we like to think that we welcome new ideas and challenges. To the extent that we do, there is a better chance of progress. Not that all new ideas are good ideas--many are not.
Thinking people do not immediately throw out new ideas. Neither are healthy people are not threatened by new ideas.
Thinking people are also more willing to pay the price of being a dissenter. Standing up to evil when it's obvious that evil exists.
Not through jaded ideas that make us see everything that's different or odd as evil. And not through seeing everything that's "normal" or ordinarily expected as good. That would be black and white thinking.
Thinking people act in good timing. Taking time to examine new ideas, but not too much time. Taking time to decide when being a dissenter is a good idea and when it is not. And going through that process EVERY time a new idea is encountered.
It's work!! Work worth doing.
