In previous posts, I have discussed principles of constructive dialogue and reasoned argument. If we are willing, first, to listen to another person’s concerns, then, to consider the most reasonable form of her opinion (intellectual charity) and to acknowledge the inevitable limitations of our own (intellectual humility), we have taken several steps away from ideology and move toward pragmatism. Our discussion will now more often be "pragmatic."
