Clarity of Division Sometimes division is worthwhile, lest you be clumped with the vile. There is yea, and there is nay. The righteous, the depraved. Those who commend, those who condemn. Those who support, those who oppose. Compliance. Resistance. The charitable. The parsimonious. The anti. The anti-anti. Do not be so quick to knock division. Every side assumes history will choose them. No one holds a perfect score. Division with thought— not habit, nor coercion— is discernment. Discernment stills the chants, wards off purity tests, unmasks tribal conformity. It favors the astute, the thoughtful by definition, the caring, and, ultimately, unity. Right and wrong can blur, While good and evil tangle. Fractures do not run evenly: A little from column A, a little from column B, with vast fields of gray between. It is harder to navigate— unless you are clear, and keep your moral compass pointed approximately, toward the correct direction.
