Viewing the World Through a Microscope

Doesn't anyone on this blog feel as I do on the topic of exotic and energetic debate? What do I mean by that kind of debate? Look at this week's Time magazine (Feb.12, 2007 ,p59)and the description of what is going on in the courts and by activists on one side or another on the subject of when rape starts, how many seconds (or less) after the woman says "no". As the descriptive sub-title states "When a woman says yes and then changes her mind, how fast must a man stop before it is a crime?"

And then of course there is the issue of when an embryo (or even earlier!) becomes a person. Why is it that people get so energized and upset by such issues? I worry that we worry too much about trivialities in our world and really ignore the important. It's like folks like to use a microscope rather than a wide angle lens to look at what is going on around us. Why is that? ..Maurice.
