Always play on level ground with peers. Each situation can be a win-win one when we respect other people. Philippians 2:3: "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves." Generalization from samples of deviant adolescents
9. People who believe differently are viewed as having moral inferiority's rather than merely differences in behavior.

" When and if the U.S. cuts back on the use of fossil fuels to reduce global warming, other nations may well follow our example. To wit, when we allow the United Nations to conduct searches for potential weapons of mass destruction in our own country, or in countries we have disputes with, other nations may follow and allow inspectors into their country as well.
