Two of us were introduced to the ideas of moral psychologist Jonathan Haidt today, when we visited the Inclusive Community Church at Pokesdown.
This TED Talk was recorded shortly after the American presidential election in 2016 but it is relevant to Europe, and to 2019 UK. "We need to recognise this is a turning point - we need a new kind of empathy." Passing references to Buddha, Jesus and Marcus Aurelius - and also Dale Carnegie's book How to win friends and influence people, a classic that I have always loved.
