In the interests of all that is good, let’s remember the rules of civil conversation.

I resolve to:

1. I will try to reach a shared understanding rather than ‘win the argument’.
2. I will clarify with others to make sure I genuinely understand their perspective.
3. I shall endeavor to avoid committing logical fallacies in support of my claims.
4. I will attempt to account for my own biases and try to be intellectually humble.
5. I will also try to be reasonable, rational, and create coherent arguments.
6. I may challenge ideas, but will refrain from personal attacks and mean-spiritedness.
7. I will use the ‘Principle of Charity’ to interpret others’ points of view in the best light.
8. I promise to remain genuinely receptive to changing my mind.
