'''MILITANT MODERATION IS A NEW PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE. IT WAS INVENTED BY DR. AARON H. SHOVERS IN 1992''' MILITANT MODERATION IS BASED UPON THESE FACTS -- A. IN THE REAL WORLD, NOT MUCH IS TOTALLY TRUE! B. WE DO KNOW THAT TOTAL CERTAINTY, WITH ITS FAR-OUT EXCESSES AND EXTREMES CAN BE VERY BENEFICIAL FOR CERTAIN INDIVIDUAL PERSONS -- BUT ONLY FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. C. ALSO, WE DO KNOW THAT TOTAL CERTAINTY EASILY CREATES MANY VIOLENT TWO-SIDED CONFLICTS. THAT'S HOW MOST PEOPLE IN THE MEDIA AND IN POLITICS BECOME SUCCESSFUL! D. On the other hand, THERE IS A THIRD SIDE TO ALL DEBATES, MODERATION (in the middle). But EXTREMISTS BELIEVE (and our dictionaries  agree), "MODERATE PEOPLE ARE MEDIOCRE AND WITHOUT ANY FIRM BELIEFS". As a result, MOST PEOPLE IGNORE THIS THIRD POINT OF VIEW, MODERATION (and Extremism gains even more power)! That's why Dr. Aaron Shovers had to invent "MILITANT MODERATES". THEY DO HAVE SOME FIRM BELIEFS, THEY PURSUE A BALANCED LIFE, AND THEY BELIEVE THAT MOST FAR-OUT EXCESSES AND EXTREMES WILL PROVE TO BE BAD FOR MOST PEOPLE, OVER THE LONG-TERM. . . THEREFORE, IF YOU TRULY DESIRE A GOOD LONG-TERM END-RESULT, YOU MUST CONSIDER MILITANT MODERATION AS A THIRD POSSIBILITY, IN ALL IMPORTANT DECISION-MAKING. AFTER ALL, TRUTH, GOOD HEALTH, DEMOCRACY, AND THE BEST LONG-TERM WAYS OF LIFE ARE USUALLY FOUND IN THE MIDDLE!
