Page 94 of the King County Official Local Voters’ Pamphlet (August 1, 2023 Primary and Special Election) gave me a shot of courage this week. The reason I’ve been needing a shot of courage is that I’ve been deeply distressed by the deep partisanship I see in our country.

But, as you see in the photo above, the first three pieces of thinking-advice are loaded with simple common sense. I was taught these steps decades ago in college, and they’re no-brainers. You and I can’t let ourselves be paralyzed by emotion-laden fallacies. We can’t refuse to think because we’re confused. I’ve seen churches, and even families, split by those who refused to follow these principles.

Another great source of wisdom is the Bible. Here’s what it has to say about truth.
