[MD] a Zen truth

[X Acto]

Closing the mind to reasonable arguements, not allowing ourselves to change
our minds or think for ourselves is an even bigger problem. I think it's ok
to take sides if indeed the proper reflection, open mindedness and will to 
resolve is employed. But thats the path least traveled eh?

Interesting indeed.

Zizek also says "taking sides" is the problem. The bigger the issue
(global warming, banking crisis, religious fundamentalist terrorism
for example), the bigger this problem - where it is most humanly
natural to stand up and be counted on one side (or the other).
