Civility
Civility is derived from the Latin civis, meaning "citizen". However, civility is not limited to actions by an individual in his or her capacity as a citizen. A citizen’s participation in the political process (voting, governance) is known as civic engagement. ==Overview== Civility is the act of engaging with others in a constructive manner. Some definitions conflate civility with politeness, which suggests disengaging with others so as not to offend ("roll over and play dead"...). The notion of constructive civility suggests robust, even passionate, engagement framed in respect for differing views. In his call for restoring civility, Pastor Rick Warren said, "In America, we’ve got to learn how to disagree without demonizing each other." Community, choices, conscience, character are all elements directly related to civility. Civility goes beyond mere manners, which is how a civil attitude often forms, this and other elements of civility, are often what creates more meaningful friendships and relationships. The act or engagement of civility in conversation is commonly referred to as civil discourse. Kenneth J. Gergen suggests that respect of all participants must be respected in civil discourse, as "the language of dispassionate objectivity". Freemasonry has been a long-standing supporter of allowing and perpetuating alternative voices and ideas, promoting democratic habits of generous listening and civil discourse.
