Your side, mine, your religion, mine, your politics, mine, your righteousness, mine, etc., are nothing but the context in which you formed your ego, and I formed mine. Do you see? You are right, and I am wrong all because of your context, which I could never have experienced, nor you, mine and in the name of my, impossible to be wrong, rightness and you yours, you, me and everyone can condone and even advocate the most abhorrent behaviors and actions toward fellow human beings.
Some will exclaim, “We are all one,” and retreat into context. Silly humans. “I am right, and you are wrong” as a context for living doesn’t seem to work. Maybe we should try “I am wrong” and leave it at that. I don’t know. I was just (wrongly) wondering.

To the extent of what you know, you may be right, but can you ever be sure if you don’t know everything there is to know?
Question your “rightness” until you are sure that you know more; infinitely more, which, if you consider it, will never come about because infinity is unfathomable and unknowable. A good practice until you do “know everything” is to say nothing at all as a defense of what you “know.” It will make for more “peace” in your life, too.

The success of the ego measured in rightness. The more right we think we are or need to be, the more egocentric we are. Embracing wrongness, now there’s a twist. Give it a try.
