I'm a Christian, so I'll spare y'all my thoughts on the root cause of conflict, but I will say I think it's a mistake to make emotions the target here. I believe they're just the messenger as to what's going on with one's beliefs and how they are interfacing with the rest of the world. Emotions can be a fantastic diagnostic tool to figuring out what's going on. Again, I'll recommend Dale Emery's writings - he's got some good stuff about using conflict and resistance as a 'debugging' tool, so to speak, for management issues. And FWIW I don't think emotions control us. Emotions are just the dashboard lights, not the steering wheel. -- Chris http://clabs.org/blog
