As an addendum to most things being in the middle of the argument, my favorite example is eggs. At one point, we were told, don't eat eggs, they will kill you. Then we were told, eat eggs, they are good for you. Then, only eat egg whites, the yoke is bad for you. etc etc.-The truth is, almost anything in moderation is ok, or at the very least of neutral effect, and in many cases things that were once railed against as terrible for you are now found to be healthy in moderate doses(i.e. eggs, alcohol, coffee, chocolate, etc.) Religious fundamentalist try to take everything as literal. It doesn't work. Scientist try to say that everything is materialistic, which also doesn't work. The truth of the matter most likely lies somewhere in the middle of the road. That is my personal view on life in general and I apply it to most things. Fortunately for me, it is not a world view that is dependent on anyone's approval.
