Would you be willing to stoop down one's level so we can live peacefully?

there's no such thing as "level". we are all equal. it's the height of arrogance of a person to say that he/ she will stoop down to one person's level. respect for each other is the only key to live peacefully. with respect, we can peacefully disagree without being disagreeable to each other.

I suppose, depending on whose point of view one takes, it depends on which side has to do the stooping and how far.
btw it isn't arguing that gives you the headaches.

in my opinion it's not a matter of "stooping down," but rising above the situation...

one's true character shows when faced with adversity...

No one has to stoop down one's level. People can live peacefully even if they are in varying degrees of intelligence, of wealth, of beauty. As long as people understand BETTER the dynamics of why people behave the way they do. This understanding of human nature will prevent us from being judgmental. This will promote respect for people's individuality, because we all can never be the same. With this understanding comes peace within ourselves.

I prefer meeting halfway. I will reach down, the other party should reach up. The effort is useless if only one party is willing to take a step towards peace. It should be a two way traffic.

Agree with Doctor J. Not necessarily stooping down on other's level but merely adjusting to other people's character, habit, traits etc...

Its being considerate of other people's feelings and emotions. If everyone is considerate to all the people around him/her there will be peace and harmony.

No, you have to stand up for what you believe in.

I've never backed down in my life. Wouldn't know how. I will greet you kindly. Pray for you lustily. And stay in my cave and let you live in peace.
Good enough?

only to some level. there are people who take that attitude as cowardice.

stooping is bad for our posture. its better to always look at everyone straight at the eyes and regard them as equals.

No need because there is no level to speak of. We are all equal, in the eyes of God. If by they you mean they...they're just dots in the sky.

To stoop down one's level implies that the one who needs to "stoop down" thinks that the second party belongs to the race of ants.

And since that feeling is mixed with animosity and to a certain degree, violent hostility, it is illogical for the first party (the one who would do the stooping) to do such a thing.

Since the objective is to live peacefully, and this means the absence of such malevolent feelings, and this can only be achieved with the total annihilation of the second party, the logical course of action is to stomp down on these ants while they are beneath you and easy to destroy. Should I become their size, it would be impossible to achieve that, wouldn't it?
