Re: Shantaram - extraordinary! Any Readers?

Re: Call to Coherence
Emine, Wow, yeah... That's a really critical distinction. What is it that they call it when people 'don't interfere' with another culture's exploitive practices because it's part of a different culture? Cultural relativism?

Re: Shantaram - extraordinary! Any Readers?
Hey there, peeps, Ambo! Nice words. Very candid. Fearless sharing. Brave. Thanks. I also noticed that when you answered patty's question she immediately started to give advice, as though trying to 'fix' you. That's interesting.
