[Carol]

orthodoxymoron, perhaps the goal is to not take sides and instead stand within the center of the diamond as the observer.

One of the hardest lessons I've learned this life is to pray for those I don't like, who have done me harm and/or who have harmed others. This also includes all negative types expanding to different races and alien species. The goal is to send spiritual light, love and visualize transformation moving in a direction that brings enlightenment to all. The true teaching of Christ is compassion in action. Hence, kindness is the key element when trying to deal with difficult challenges with people who are different or at different levels of understanding.

I don't see where calling people names, attacking others integrity, taking a self-righteous stance to promote and defends one's own ego as serving anyone. If anything it diminishes the inner light of the person who is attacking another and painful to observe for those who happen upon toxic text. The observer's role is that of witness to the process. Empathy is extended to everyone.
