How are these questions answered?
उत्तर १
Each side in the conflict thinks of the other side as a hated enemy, and there is a tendency to exaggerate the virtues of one’s own side as well as the vices of the other side. Thus, when two nations are at war, patriots in each nation see the other as the enemy aggressor. Each side believes that God and truth are on their side.
उत्तर २
- We are able to answer many of these questions because of the way in which we are socialised.
- The socialisation process involves a continuous dialogue, negotiation, and even struggle against significant others like our parents, family, kin group, and our community. Our community provides us with the language (our mother tongue) and the cultural values through which we comprehend the world. It also anchors our self-identity.
