Quote:If you do not devote yourself to an ideal, how can you really prove to me that you won't be the first to leave at the sign of trouble?
What?
I need prove nothing to you; I don't care what you think. Nor is there any reason I can think of anyone should..
MY position; I think pure idealogues are naive at best, dangerous at worst. Such people rely on dogma in lieu of critical thinking.
ME? I'm a pluralist. I've yet to see any single ideology which is not deeply flawed and unworthy of total commitment.
