My version of Historian's impartiality
Usually it is said that a historian's job in order to be impartial is to keep one's distance, to avoid favoring any one side or getting close to anything emotionally.
Not me.
For me, my job as a historian is to be impartial by making sure I give every side as much love as they deserve.
I am not an unattached observer.
I am a historian who loves each and every side. All of them.
I am a historian who considers it my responsibility to give as much love to each side as they deserve.
If I refuse to get attached to any side, then I am failing.
For I am not a modern historian.
I am a spiritual historian.
It is my responsibility to make sure that everyone gets as much love as they deserve.
I am not a detached observer.
I am a Tolkien, only as a writer of true-life events.
God loves you!
Sincerely,
David S. Annderson
