Which has turned all of us into 'know-it-alls' in turn filling others with garbage. If we each let go of everything we thought we knew and approached every issue without politics or particular 'knowledge' to contribute, how would that look?

"If we each let go of everything we thought we knew and approached every issue without politics or particular 'knowledge' to contribute, how would that look?" I would agree it would be a pretty good way to approach new thinking, but did you ever try to change someone's perception of religious dogma for instance?

There's also another viewpoint in that you don't want to 'throw away the baby with the bathwater', but you can certainly put the water through a filter and still have water to drink. meaning that trying to separate fact from fiction is a pretty good start...... For instance, is a God a Fact or Fiction?
