That reminded me of the Jewish saying, paraphrased, that if you have 3 Jews in a room, you will have 5 opinions. Maybe it was 10 Jews and 12 opinions, but you get the idea. A lot of self-confident intelligent people can quickly become stubborn and self-righteous. I'm a lot like you in that I try to see every side to a story, and if I say something I may only be playing devil's advocate to try to help one person see another side, or to bring in the other possibilities and lay them on the table, too. Of course, that's also a scientific method: don't believe you have the answer til you've actually studied the question.Di Eats the Elephanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12067737807348338927noreply@blogger.com
