So this helps if I can say this person's kind of on the left or on the right, but they're up high, I think.
In other words, I think they got there using evidence and reason and they were willing to change their mind.
Now, that means a lot to me what they have to say.
If I think they're just a tribal person and I can predict all their beliefs from hearing one because it's so obvious what political beliefs, that person's views are irrelevant to me because they're not real.
They didn't come from...
They came from a tribe's kind of sacred Ten Commandments.
Yeah, I mean, if I'm thinking with my higher mind, and now here, you can use different things for an idea as a metaphor.
So here, the metaphor is a boxer for one of your conclusions, one of your beliefs.
And if all I care about is truth, in other words, that means all I care about is having a good boxer, I would...
Say, go, yeah, try.
See if this person's good.
In other words, I would get into arguments, which is throwing my boxer out there to fight against other ones.
And if I think my argument's good, by the way, I love boxing.
If I think my guy is amazing, you know, Mike Tyson, I'm thinking, oh, yeah, bring it on.
Who wants to come see?
I bet no one can beat my boxer.
I love a good debate, right, in that case.
Now, what would you think about my boxer?
If not only was I telling you he was great, but he's never boxed anyone.
But then you said, okay, well, your idea came over to try to punch him.
