"Truth comes by conflict."
That quote comes from Hilaire Belloc's Essays of a Catholic.
We shelter ourselves in a world that is sanitized from conflict. And in our conflict shelters, we fail to realize that we no longer see the truth. Conflict is something to be cherished. Political correctness brings us to a fraudulent unity. Sharing the truth in love brings us to the truth, which will result in authentic unity.
No sugarcoating. No manipulating. No appeasing. Those are the tools of fraudulent unity.
Struggling. Challenging. Correcting. In love, those are the tools of authentic unity.
Watch out for the potholes.
