'Justice' is one of those abstract words that we all use and think we know, yet when we talk to other people, we begin to realise that they might think something completely different when they use the same word. Is revenge ever acceptable? Would you be comfortable being tried by 'a jury of your peers'? Do you support the death penalty for the very worst offenders? What about broader, societal forms of justice? What in particular makes you feel unjustly treated?
We each desire justice for all, but we often feel unjustly treated by the actions of others. Yet, more often than not, these others believe they were acting in a perfectly just manner.
So, let’s talk about how and why each personality type experiences justice differently, and how we might anticipate conflict on this topic. What do we do when justice is not the same for all people?
All welcome. Come and share with others (we typically break into small groups for discussion).
Venue and koha: We ask for a koha or donation to help cover the venue costs. We're in the downstairs meeting room at Thistle Hall. Enter at the side of the building on SH1/Arthur Street (around the corner from Cuba St) and once inside, go straight ahead then head right along the passage by the toilets. The meeting room is at the end of that short passage (and up one step).
About us: This is a group for everybody who would like to understand a bit more about themselves and the people they live or work with through sharing with others. Maybe you would like to know why your kids always clash, or why your partner is so sensitive... or not sensitive enough. Maybe you would like to know why you or somebody you love never seems to fit in. Maybe you want to know why you have chosen a certain profession. Maybe you just want to share what you know about personality types or learn what others know.
The main focus of this group is on understanding the 16 psychological types first described by Carl Jung and made popular by Myers-Briggs and David Keirsey. The key is that once we understand that we are not all alike, we can open our minds to sharing rather than judging each other and learn to celebrate our differences.
