Re: On Civility, Political Correctness, Honesty, and Frankness
words affect people differently. words affect male differently than female; differently between old and young; between folks of different background and experience; and so on. words can reach into places where stick and stone cannot. they reach into our heart, our soul and our spirit. words have more power than most realized. have you ever wondered why freedom of speech isn't guaranteed in many countries in the world? because it has the power to bring a ruling government down to its knee. words like "We the People..", "I have a dream.." have the power to change the course of a nation. words have a great deal of power. and words from spiderman movie "With great power comes great responsibility"
