Oral Dancing

Filed under: Rant

I wonder what it is about human nature that causes us to dance around the obvious in our conversations? Why do we ignore the elephant in the room? When push comes to shove, why do so many people revert to a placating hug? I find this to be especially true in church circles where brotherly love and Christian camaraderie seem to rule the day. There isn't a week that goes by that I am not involved in some sort of meeting where a key leader will spew unnecessary elegant oral verbiage. Audiences are affirmed while B.S. detectors are sounding alarms.

What bugs me even more is that I'm guilty of this. And I hate it.
