    And you know what, I started to think, that although that sounds reasonable, and is generally true for subjective experience, in objectivity, not all positions are the same, nor are they in the middle. Someone is right, or at least more right, than another in given matters.

    I mean, when Copernicus floated the idea that you know the earth went around the sun, despite that everyone KNEW that the sun went around the earth, people didn't end up placating themselves with, "Gee, well, maybe the answers in the middle. Maybe they just go around each other? Ok, I can live with that, let's go get some coffee..."

    You know, maybe even in the political sphere someone is trying to get as close as we can get to objective reality and the other is trying rhetorical tricks to achieve selfish or nefarious ends.

    That's all I'm saying...
