Thy Geekdom Come

Thy Geekdom Come

What do you do when a person in indirect authority over you, who knows more about the subject at hand, but is at most dead wrong and at least avoiding the issue (which is a pressing one), basically tries to tell you that there is no problem at all?

If I stand up for what I know is right, I'll get shut up and possibly get others in trouble and myself as well.

If I don't stand up, the thing I know is wrong continues.

:idontknow:

I haven't stated any particulars, nor will I. No one needs to know publicly what I'm talking about.

I'm not sure what's going on and really it would depend on the situation to what extent you take your arguments. I would consult someone you trust on the matter.

The trouble is no one can answer you unless they know the details which you cannot post here. Maybe this should be a PM topic.

I'd say do what you can, but know when to "shake the dust from your feet". If they will not listen, don't get yourself in trouble over a cause (unless it's like an abomination of some sort). Make yourself known, and let them do what they will with what you have told them.

As followers of Christ, who is the Truth, we must always stand for the truth and stand against what is wrong- no matter the cost. That said, and not knowing the particualrs of your situation, i would reccomend finding a person who you can trust and can help with your situation.

Good luck and God Bless

Yeah. It's a common problem displayed by un-funny people.

It's okay. :console: There, there.
