Making fine distinctions is necessary in life in order for us to move past the brutish behavior of our past. We will certainly not lose the impact of our decisions because we choose to interpret our words with more insight than brute force. Understanding a complexity, that leaves many who choose not to learn logic, is not a negative trait, it is contrarily a positive in that what one knows that others don't is more an advantage than a detriment. We all choose to be either informed or not informed. That is our right to choose, however it is not our right to expect anything more than we deserve for our calculated strategy. If we choose to ignore the present and what the past has taught us about the present then our say in the future will be dimly received. However if we do choose to understand the dynamics of our existence with some complexity then our opinions about our present course and our future become of much more value. That is the subtlety I am referring. Knowing the undercurrent of actions as opposed to not knowing puts us in different perspectives. Knowledge will most always win out over luck so don't allow yourself the indignity of being proven wrong by defaulting on your own option to learn. That is all the difference is between those who are mostly right about actions and those who mostly are not. As a reminder, you cannot go wrong if you found your principles in virtue. Allowing for equality, honor and justice etcetera to guide your path is rarely a wrong choice to make. Knowing the differences between virtue and belief will also serve you well in that virtue is founded in the best of who we are as a species opposed to belief which is founded in some ancient concept with restriction and limited choice.
