Understanding

There are two sides to every story just like there are two sides to every coin; so why is it that neither side can understand both sides? It could be chalked up to pure old fashioned stubbornness or it could be they fear the other possibilities or it could be that some people just want something to fight about, but what ever the reason I can tell you why they don’t get very far with getting others to understand their points of view.

No one likes to be put down as if they were no better then the dirt they tread upon, yet many that proclaim to be knowledgeable have a really bad habit of making others that are seeking the information to become knowledgeable feel anger; many times it is absolutely deliberate.

The older person’s knowledge is usually based on that individual’s experience while a younger fresh out of school individual’s perception is based on theory. There is absolutely great value in both, yet neither seems able to understand this. In any case neither is a reason to begin slanderous bickering.

I have been one of many millions of people trying to gain a better understanding of the Nuclear Power Plants and their workings. I am not a Physicist nor am I affluent in mathematics; fact is I’m not even mechanical or electrically inclined. I still want to learn about them regardless of all of that and there should be information in laymen terms to give others like myself that understanding.

What I have found among a very few key points that a normal everyday individual like myself can understand are multitudes of malicious slanders like that I heard on a YouTube video’s NPR Sting, degrading normal people that do not have the “Higher Education” knowledge of math and terminology associated with general Physics.

I would have thought that willful malignant slandering and slurs against others would be above people with that kind of an education; I guess I was dreadfully wrong. Instead of these highly educated people attempting to help their fellow man understand, it seems a great deal of them would rather place themselves high on a pedestal sneering down at everyone else that doesn’t share in their level of education; or at the very least the same view points whining and complaining about the others.
