We Think We Are Being Neutral

what happens in front of us is shadowed in a variety of ways by our perceptions, and preconceived beliefs four of us see a truck run into a car none of us see it exactly the same we all think we are being neutral neutrality is a concept we do not grasp none of us can write it up completely nonbiased without feelings, impressions, experience, and prior knowledge What we report is not devoid of emotions. We think it is, but it cannot be. We cannot eliminate our humanness.

So true, Caren. We can never shed our humanness. It is simply who we are.

We do try, but of course, we are always biased by our humanness.
