No one is wrong.
At most someone is uninformed. If I think someone is wrong, either I am unaware of something, or that person is. So unless I want to play a superiority game, I had best find out what she or he is looking at. "You're wrong" means "I don't understand you" - I'm not seeing what you're seeing. But there is nothing wrong with you, you are simply not me and that's not wrong."

- Hugh Prather -

Two Wolves.
One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. He said, "My son, the battle is between two "wolves" inside us all. One is Evil. It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority and ego. The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith" The grandson thought about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather, "Which wolf will win?" The old Cherokee simplied replied, "The one you feed."
