I currently give lectures to design students. They always say to never talk politics and religeon. I disagree. I think the only way we truly understand the other side is to listen to what they have to say. It doesnt mean we have to agree, but we have a better grasp of their rationale.Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03033788630762248583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19466193.post-23890111629934712412009-03-30T10:56:00.000-04:002009-03-30T10:56:00.000-04:00Wow.

If someone rapes, murders, molests, but asks forgiveness, they get to go to heaven? I mean, doesn't that send the message that ALL people could do whatever they want, but just ask for forgiveness, and go to Heaven, instead of living your life by the law, and the bible?<BR/><BR/>But I'm glad your lecture went well. I did go well, didn't it?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10811460930343769653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19466193.post-78123491570023164122009-03-30T10:25:00.000-04:002009-03-30T10:25:00.000-04:00Interesting post!I remember my college speech clas...Interesting post!<BR/>I remember my college speech class too.<BR/>The prof talked about communication in a small group and gave labels for the roles different people played within - when he came to Peace Maker - it was like a light went on - that's me!the dogs' motherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11512888563325865616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19466193.post-31284991836309083902009-03-30T09:08:00.000-04:002009-03-30T09:08:00.000-04:00Working in retail, gives you some pointers on how ...Working in retail, gives you some pointers on how to be a good listener.
