Knowledge Is Power
Civil Conversation starts with accepting that we do not know everything .
We all have opinions on subjects and we may disagree with others.
Common Sense allows us to realize this is normal, and simply a different perspective.
Conversation and perspectives do not hurt us. Actions can. Civil discourse does not require hurtful actions.
Civil Conversation and acceptance [not necessarily agreement with] of differing perspectives allows us to increase our knowledge, our power.
