As you are aware from our first post on July 9, 2008, we are trying to teach others how to protect themselves from mental and emotional hurt, especially the loss of self-esteem, due to the bigotry of others. On our website (www.withstandingthelie.com) we invite people to ask questions and provide feedback on the information and teachings we are providing. Your comments or questions on this blog is another avenue for you to let us hear from you.
In our post on July 9, 2008, we proposed multiple questions and we would still like to hear from you on the questions we presented at that time. In this post, we want to narrow your focus. We invite you to let us hear from you on the following preliminary question: Since bigotry still happens, despite our efforts to stop it, do you believe individuals should have a specific strategy to protect themsleves from the loss of self-esteem and other mental and emotional hurt due to the bigotry of others? What is your answer and what are the reasons for your conclusion?
Please let us here from you and please visit our website to understand more fully what you and others can do to withstand the bigotry of others.
“Withstanding the Lie” is a strategy that we have articulated in our book of the same title to help people protect themselves from the loss of self-esteem and other mental and emotional harm caused by the bigotry others. We have established this blog to give people an opportunity to raise questions, provide information or advice, or express opinions or beliefs on withstanding the lie of bigotry.
