Good Language Can Impress

Arguments that use language well can impress listeners and rid them of their staid way of ordering their business and moral lives. Rhetoric, grammar and logic can be very convincing as long as they are easily understood. They can lead to endless discussions of matters concerning the business and moral universe without necessarily being in step with anything. It can lead into other areas that people feel comfortable with like philosophy, theology and spirituality. That doesn't mean it has to be chaotic. It can still be well ordered and cultured. Free discussion can lead to a flourishing of ideas, insights and progress. We can see the other side's point of view. When the language is full of the kind of jargon that most people don't understand the chances of starting up meaningful dialogue is limited. Good debate can lead to a new understanding and realization of better ways to view existence.
