ロイ Nope. If you paid attention to what I was saying, I made it clear in no uncertain terms that I don't desire to fit in. Major difference between "coexistence" "getting along" and "trying to fit in". I do prefer coexistence and getting along, but I don't desire to fit in at all. Albeit this is all above your head. Speaking of which, I have yet to see how these guidelines work and don't totally just contradict your own statement's value. Specifically principle number two. As one should point out when you're wrong, and the hypocrisy that a person is expected not to point out someone's flaws on one hand and do not expect the natural consequence of a response of equal measure. Not to mention the idea isn't theirs in certain situations, and shouldn't be given the illusion that it is. This personally and morally bankrupt. I do agree with number eight. Understanding the viewpoints of others helps you form an understanding of what to discuss. Principle nine seems sensible, but at the same time I don't see how a bad idea should be sympathized with. As for principle 10, not all motives are noble, nor the means. This doesn't seem very helpful to me. (This isn't me trying to be condescending. Some of these principles legitimately confuse me, or simply contrast with a different background.)

@megitsune Indeed. I handled it poorly. Not gonna lie. Thought I was put under attack and it turns out I was misreading something someone said.

Well, I'd say for me that it is a bad habit for me to break. Difficult, sure, but I'm sure I'll eventually get it worked out. (Last but not least, sorry if I don't respond for a while. I need some sleep.)

I'm not so rigid as you might think. One ideal I proposed to you is to always doubt yourself, which is something that I adhere to. It allows me to keep an open mind so that I can reach a conclusion while considering as much information as possible. And when my understanding and beliefs wade through all of my doubts and manage to come out clean in the end, that is when I am confident.

No offense Shinu but I don't think always doubting yourself might help at times. This I believe differs in opinions to people. Like on a logic side I learned from teachers. Usually your first answer is the right answer. If you start doubting you make yourself wrong at times. Now with life. Sometimes you do need to doubt a descion and think of how it might effect an event or person, but a different side if there is something about yourself like believing in your own faith or an action that kindly helps yourself or another I don't believe one should be in doubt or they will confuse themselves on who they are.

I think that's a misconception. There are cases in which that holds true, but it shouldn't be generally applied. For example, judging a strangers behavior is a situation in which your basic human instincts will tell you a lot of truths you might not otherwise observe, and as such you might veer away from a correct conclusion that you had previously made. However if you're aware of general aspects of human behavior, then you have additional information to work with, and as such the chances of making the right decision based on your doubts increases, while the instinctual decision remains the same. You always also have other ways to reach a conclusion other than that, such as simply asking the person that you're wondering about. But the teachers weren't wrong, they simply weren't talking about those sorts of situations. When you're taking a quiz you're going to be recalling from memory what the answer to a question might be. This is entirely dependent on you and no outside information is typically allowed. However what they likely told you is not to always stick with your gut feeling, but to go with your gut feeling if you're unsure of the answer. This is because of how memory works. Memory works by association. Specific memories can be pulled from you without ever alluding to it in a logical manner. The countless hours spent sitting in class are gearing your mind, and the questions will be calling out to the memories made then, of which you're likely to pull from that set of memories versus any other, of which there's a limited number of possibilities you could have. The key to when you allow doubt to stop you or not is determined by how much information you are missing and how you can get it. If you can identify that there's no information that you can obtain that would overthrow your previous conclusion, then it's a safe bet to go with that conclusion. However, people often don't know what they don't know, which is why it's so important to doubt. You don't have to let doubt stop you or change your decision, but you should work to learn so that you can make a definite correct decision in the future.

Even if they meant in on a test it's also true in real life. There are times you find out about a person personality that showed even for a moment before they put that mask on. You can't let their mask fool you cuz you saw how they are truly. Even for a moment. There's also the category of faith. Doubting choices you make on life even based on faith that you feel strongly about shouldn't be doubted. Even if others disagree. Than there is basically who you are. A part of you yourself is happy about and have a strong feeling that this is right shouldn't be doubted. Not everyone will agree, but you shouldn't doubt yourself all the the time. Doubt yourself when you are thinking of something like how to respond or react to a certain situation or subject, but this is what I believe and feel is right. Everybody has a different view of life that works for them, but somebody who is confused should look at other options and views in life till they find what is right for them. This is my view. I'd it's disagreed with than it is not a viewpoint for the other person.

I think faith is only faith because you doubt. If you didn't have doubt, then it wouldn't be faith in the first place. That's the nature of what faith is. You have faith when you don't have all the answers, and you're unsure, but you want to believe in something good that might be wrong but you don't know for sure, and so you do.
