Thanks Chris. I maintain that the way our brain/minds are constructed is that it is quite impossible for any of us to communicate without any bias. The only way any of us can begin to corral truth is to get exposure to viewpoints other than our own. It’s most helpful is these alternative views come from another earnest, and thoughtful truth seeker.
Thanks Frank! While I absolutely agree with the sentiment "it is quite impossible for any of us to communicate without any bias", I would still cavil at the choice of 'bias' here. It makes it seem as if what you're describing is a tragic flaw in our species. While it has certainly had some problematic consequences, I am more optimistic and might say 'it is impossible to have a view of the world without standing somewhere'. 🙂
