When personal view points become public

Personal View Points often are very interesting and rich in their depth and breadth of content. When such view points become public, they can evoke diverse opinions leading up to taking sometimes a rigid, violent, uncompromising, unyielding and even frivolous stand. The richness of the view points also lead up to a stand that result in positive responses enriching the original view point.

So there are multiple issues to deal with in this space when the responses become negative or when the view point itself considered blasphemy or against the well being of humanity. If we know how to temper or mediate the public viewpoints, then lot of uneasiness and resulting friction can be avoided.

This is by no means advocating not to make ones' view point public. But this is an attempt to encourage view points that are humane, well thought out and for the well being of humanity.
