This week started off well for the small minded. The attack on the shopping mall in Kenya was a clear demonstration of how murdering a bunch of innocent people accomplishes meaningful goals. Score one for dichotomous
A unanimous resolution by the UN Security Council represents a body blow to small mindedness. It is true, they may still recover. There are dozen of reasons why Syria’s chemical weapons may ultimately not be secured and destroyed. But for now, score one for goal oriented thinking (GOT).

Next we hear there was a phone conversation between President Obama and Iranian President Hassan Rouhani. A significant step forward for human evolution, but devastating news to the small minded. Both men are being cursed (in different languages) with the same messages. “It’s wrong to talk to those evil people.” “We can not trust them.””Talking to them makes us look weak.” As with Syria, the small minded may have the last laugh, but for now, score another for GOT.

So for this week it’s DT 1, GOT 2.
