It it ever worth hiding what you believe to avoid conflict?

[holidaysong]

Yes

On a night out in Colraine last november Rangers had beaten Celtic in the CIS cup. Anyway lets say some of the songs being sung I found to be a tad racist... Outnumbered 500-1, I decided it was wise to keep my views to myself...

Yes. Especially as you could well be wrong....! :eek: :D

The essence of human social structures is the avoidance of conflict, as successfully practised by about 99% of the population. If everyone went round banging on about what they thought all the time, there'd be murders left right and centre.

[anto1208]

i would nt go around forcing people to listen to what i think but i have gotten in many a scrape standing up for what i belive in , eg i hate rasisim so recetly when a came across a black woman getting abuse from some dirt bag i stepped in , got a few slaps that day but i felt it was something i should do , you d be amazed at the number of people that stood by and watched the abuse and the voilence with out helping

Its not worth hiding your beliefs, no way, thats what makes people unique!

[Gareth]

Some people hid their beliefs to be tactful or as not to put your safety at risk. Typical example is the Rangers - Celtic post above. Personally I avoid Celtic conversations with their fans as I find they are liable to murderize me when I say I don't really care if Rangers won the league.

I believe in some crazy things so for example in work I'd keep it under wraps as not to be considered mental :)

[Macy]

Gareth - ffs :rolleyes:

Any response that is in anyway "auld firm" and it's getting split off and binned.

[Gareth]

Sorry :)

[Macy]

Sorry :)
Just try to avoid conflict in future... :D

[Gareth]

Macy, I have very little substantial opinon for it to be conflict-worthy. :)

You are wise beyond your years pete. The older I get the fewer opinions I seem to have....
