Black or White

For some reason I can't see grey. Most things for me are black or white. Either you're right or wrong, something is true or false, or the answer is yes or no. Some people call it being closed or narrow minded. I like to think of it as being decisive. Grey is an excuse. A way to avoid commitment or making a decision. There isn't always a grey and I'm tired of people using grey as an easy way out of an argument.

Though Tina, cris is also correct.

Bypassing the grey and jumping back and forth was not condemned here so...

There isn't always grey but there isn't always an answer. Most people ask questions internally or externally without realizing the bias in their questions nor the fact that they already want a certain response. So many times the use of grey gets them to at least start to see how they COULD be mistaken in their assumptions. (Hell I do that at times even though I agree with what the person is saying..they are just a bit to self righteous about it. This isn't fully correct but sorta close to what I thought of when I read this)
