The thing about black and white is that there are different shades of each. One thing I&#x27;ve learned in life is that most people are just trying to have a decent life and make it so that their lives and the lives of people they care about can remain decent. I have a lot of respect for people I firmly disagree with on philosophical, moral, and religious grounds, because they&#x27;re <i>trying</i> to make the world a better place, even though they may be wrong about <i>how</i> to do just that.
