When we're too eager to be taken seriously, we risk looking silly
A sober year-end reminder: Can non-givers expect to get into heaven?
And neither of them ever takes precedence over the other

As long as there's room to speak out, there's room enough
Clearing the air may make room for a good look at the real issue
