Great danger in use of the will

[turtledude23]

And fighting for vegetarianism is not a good cause because all I could interpret as fighting is trying to convince people to go veg fiercely, which would not be accepting of others,

So do you think those who fought to release 'slaves' were wrong too? Should they have just 'accepted' the 'slaveowners'?

or releasing animals from farms, which would give the cause bad publicity. If fighting for the cause is calmly explaining the health, environmental, and compassion benefits when asked then I'm all for that, but I wouldn't call that a fighting for a cause any more than I'd call giving directions to someone who asks for directions fighting for a cause.

If those championing the Blacks had just calmly voiced their opinion when asked, how much longer would it have taken to outlaw slavery in this country?

Someone could read this and say that you're comparing Blacks to chickens and cows.

I could say that to make you look inhumane or whatever, using willpower in the attempt to advance my argument (which I could believe to be a noble STO cause) and weaken your credibility, polarizing me a bit towards STS.

I think that's an example of the great danger in use of the will, lol.

I'm using my will right now to prove a point - is my purpose to give a viewpoint, or to inflate my ego by looking smart? Am I polarizing STS right now?



L/L Monica, I'm not saying you think the rights of cows and chickens are as important as civil rights, I just used a dirty political tactic to make a point. I think you're awesome.

Yes! Thank you Wander-Man, that's the point I was trying to get at.
