ammon - Re: People are not only the products of a particular paradigm,
Have you not yet learned that I do not subscribe to notions beginning with the word "if", that request of our fellow man to modify inherent human behavior? I prefer instead to deal with the realities of the behavior while attempting not to make things worse by contributing to the problems. If only we could get people to transcend sentences beginning with the word "if".
It's a small step I know, but we have to get some people started somewhere.

People are not only the products of a particular paradigm,
but also tend to live and dwell within the bounds of definable social strata. Communication tends to diminish between these social groups, as exemplified by cultural differences, affluence, and even language barriers. This loss of communication invariably results in conflicts. The world can be improved, and many of its problems solved, if people learn to transcend (see beyond) these insulating social barriers.
