Nofear Posted April 12, 2022 Posted April 12, 2022 The Church hasn't always been as good as it is now. I do believe it is quite good, but also, there is room for improvement. What are your thoughts? (source article: https://consilienceproject.org/endgames-of-bad-communication/) PS: While not the question I'm asking, I have seen every one of these techniques unabashedly used by the Church's nay-sayers. 1
The Nehor Posted April 12, 2022 Posted April 12, 2022 Wait, then how do you deal with people who are actually irredeemably unreasonable? 1
Calm Posted April 12, 2022 Posted April 12, 2022 (edited) Speaking for myself, the format is discouraging me from responding since I can’t break it up. On better days I might do it for you anyway because I like your threads and posts so much, but patience is so very, very short today and likely for a few days…for two many reasons (to whine or not to whine…) Edited April 13, 2022 by Calm 3

Calm Posted April 13, 2022 Posted April 13, 2022 I skimmed through the link you posted, No Fear; looks like it is well worth taking more time to actually read it without music playing even so it implants in my brain better. Are you asking for specific examples of how we might increase the Good Faith communication styles and decrease any Bad Faith moves we come across? Or a more general approach? 1

Who are the Church's "nay-sayers?" Can you answer without using "villainization?" Ooooh man - I used up two questions in one comment! Edited April 14, 2022 by Navidad
