On humility
Posted on September 29th, 2009 by Jackie Danicki
Is there any possible argument that some of us, being ill-educated in certain areas, should simply back off and be humble? I find myself less and less inclined to keep up with the ins and outs of politics, for instance. I know comparatively nothing about several major religions, and am totally uninterested in anything but the most popular, gripping science. So I won’t be attacking any of those groups. In general, if you’re criticising any enormous group of millions of people (Americans, Jews, Blacks, Gays, Theists) your generalisations are probably going to be (a) a waste of time and (b) superficial. The wrong focus, I would say.
