We are ass-u-me’ing that is the ONLY thing that could possibly move the person.
That could be hideously wrong, in which case the moral onus would be on us.
“We are ass-u-meing that is the ONLY thing that could possibly move the person.”
No, I am doing a good deal more than that. I am applying the knowledge gained over an eventful 6.5 decades in this world. When I say “knowledge,” I am speaking of information and experience not merely gained, but examined, deconstructed, reconstructed, discussed, defended, discarded if found wanting, and adopted if it survived the cauldron.
I made a judgment, not an assumption.
I could be wrong, but, you know, I’m not.
