Personally, I find it hard to respect people who don't stand by what they say. Before I go on, I gotta admit I have contradicted forma beliefs ive had, as I've entered new areas of thought and understanding on many things. What I thought to be true before, I now think differently etc ....,,,,,

In daily interactions though, when someone flips between their 'truth' and another standpoint (appropriate to thier adjenda at the time) does it really matter?

I've seen people on Facebook project a different persona to the person I've always known. Or someone who says one thing, then back tracks on previous statements after they've been called out.... They don't really stand anywhere but in the limelight of whatever they think looks good in the moment.

Does it even matter? Serious question......
