We must not just be open to the truth ethically, but the more we want to know what is going on inside ourselves, around us and in the world, the more aware and sensitive we will be about ethical reality about us.
We must make ethical distinctions and put those into words which label accurately the character, motives and actions of ourselves and others, and we must be at time willing to announce our conclusions publicly, truthfully, unemotionally, and descriptively, but without favoritism or scapegoating.
We are not passing judgment: we are, in our minds, and in the public square, in mode of utter free speech, calling a spade a spade. We must differentiate between what is good and evil in society in our generation, before we can move to lessen evil and promote benevolence.
