The Devil is in the details...
Sometimes it is understanding that is required.
I just had tea with a friend I had not seen in a long time. She was lamenting the amount of in-fighting that is going on from people who value The Truth. I put The Truth in capitals here, as The Truth is not your truth, or mine. This means, we can be wrong.
We agreed that we are not seeing debate in the mainstream, and that people have forgotten how to debate in a rational manner. We have to be the ones that do this, because what the mainstream is teaching us, is acquiescence. One point of view, where there are many. This is not possible - part of the beauty of being alive is our diversity of opinions.
As adults we should learn how to agree to disagree, to respect other people, and to get on with our lives. But we have no role models for this anymore. Everyone is agreeing with the narratives, no matter which narrative it is - and when something doesn’t fit, it gets attacked. Again, no matter which ‘side’ you are on. All sides are attacking what doesn’t match their truth, and the majority are not respecting each other, or honouring The Truth.
I totally understand that there is a lot of anger out there. But sometimes there is no need to attack. Sometimes it is understanding that is required.
Things are not black and white. People are not entitled to many things, but they are entitled to change their minds.
Whether the fine print aligns or not, we who love The Truth need to lead by example. It’s okay to make a mistake. It’s okay to disagree on the details. We must, together, be a stronger voice than any narrative. There's no need to attack someone on a pedantic level when, to coin a cliché, together we are stronger.
Together, we are stronger.
I'll say it again - together, we are stronger.
So let it go, gather your strength, and stand strong in The Truth. Take the risk. We are at a choice point once more, and you don't want to be left behind because the Devil is in the details. He is, he really, really is. And now you understand why.

Agreed. We don't know what we don't know in the moment. The next few years is going to require a great deal of grace both dispensed and absorbed. But I am ever optimistic. Or, as Mark says, Apocaloptimistic! Looking for to reading this latest book! I have had some of those similar experiences and living with them without being able to share them in polite society has been odd. I really appreciate you breaking that silence, Abby.
The Truth is like a very high mountain we are struggling to climb. Now and then we catch glimpses of the summit, or maybe it's just the next ridge. Doesn't matter. Instinct drives us on, upwards towards the top.
