That's precisely why I am asking for Member input! All this effort is to no avail if we don't find ways to reach those whose brains are parked in neutral. So what is needed here is the best techniques for causing readers to pause and think. Seems to me that posing questions which trigger the reader to pause and consider and even "battle inside" with the concept before them would be viewed as less combative and more like holding the door open. I'm still striving to learn and adopt such techniques, and suggestions for doing that better, especially on this Morality page, are so welcome. Tassie, you are so right!

Too many people have lost, or never had, the capability to reason, hence are unable to think of the consequences of words and actions, unable to consider a different way of doing something, and unable to reach deep down inside themselves to find their center to determine a philosophy on which to hang their lives. If you agree, what would be a way to reach these people? I believe they live superficial lives. They may have careers and families and friends, but they seem to have no inner drive to maximize their capabilities. How do we get beneath the superficial layer in order to help them reason? Only Human life necessarily includes the the Mind and the ability to apply the human capability to Reason based upon all that is observable by one’s Senses, and to use one’s Reason to abstract and conceive of things beyond — innovation, improvement, expansion, and creation.
