They each need to listen to each other's descriptions of the Net-Long-Term-Costs of each other's Life-Styles; and the Net-Long-Term-Costs of their own Life-Styles. In the absence of the above suggested Two-Way-Dialogue, there are bound to be forms of bias and prejudice with many avoidable Long-term-Costs. Each person needs to learn how to Listen-Patiently to each other's Descriptions of their own and each other's fears. Unilateral Exclusions & Exclusivity are biased/prejudiced. Unilateral Attacks and Violence are biased/prejudiced. We all need to build-together safe-sanctuaries for the above kinds of process to take place without prejudice, bias, and segregation. Fighting over which side's stories are most reliable is no way to transcend bias and prejudice; nor to mitigate extreme long-term-net-costs --- due to alienations. If anyone believes that it is best-for-all to augment any of the following long-term-goals, they can helpfully describe why they believe that it is best in the long term to AUGMENT: 1. Prejudices and/or biases. 2. Concentrations of Wealth and/or Powers. 3. Greed and/or Hoarding. 4. Envy and/or Strife. 5. Domination and/or Controls. 6. Unilateral and/or Secret Initiatives. 7. Pretentious and/or Arrogant Claims. 8. Demonstrations of Personal &/or Communal Superiority. 9. Demonstrations of Certain-Absolute-TRUTH. 10. Demonstrations of Certain-Eternal-TRUTH. 11. Demonstrations of Transcendence of Human-Limitations. 12. Demonstrations of Transcendence of Limited-Resources. Through open & honest dialogue people may come to consensus, IF they are patient with each other's differences. Be-Together in the Many-Gracious Ways of Shalom. (c) 2008 by Paul A. Smith in "Search for Honesty and Integrity" (On Being Yourself Whole and Healthy) ==========================================================
