Qualifying Principles into Oblivion…

Qualifying principles excessively can erode the essence of those principles, turning them into highly detailed lists of exceptions and conditions. When principles are overly qualified, they lose their fundamental nature, becoming mere descriptions of specific scenarios rather than guiding beliefs. This approach blurs the line between having defined principles and just reacting emotionally to situations. By constantly adding exceptions and conditions to principles like free speech or the right to life, individuals risk diluting the core values that these principles are meant to uphold.
