Persistence, a loud speaker and a thesaurus

Abstract

As a communicator I believe that the use of synonyms is an acceptable way of communicating an idea in a variety of contexts. We must speak the language our listeners can hear. Just as there are many words and images for God, there are many ways of describing evil. By using the appropriate metaphor or reference for the context in which we are speaking, we open the way to discussion of the idea, not its envelope.
