Sometimes people pretend that such differences cannot exist, and that it is impossible for real people who are fundamentally different to exist. Then people who are fundamentally different are regarded as less than real people. Sometimes people pretend that all real people respond to situations pretty much like they themselves respond, that real people cannot possibly experience situations in fundamentally different ways. Then people who do respond to situations in fundamentally different ways are regarded as people who lack integrity. Such convictions lead to personal and communal disintegration. (c) 2005 by Paul A. Smith in (On Being Yourself, Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
