Hey, here's some definitions I found and am using in my affirmative...

Conflict, defined by Merriam-Webster's Online Dictionary, is "competitive or opposing action of incompatibles; antagonistic state or action (as of divergent ideas, interests, or persons)"

Idealism, defined by Webster's New World Dictionary, 2nd College Edition, is "behavior or thought based on a conception of things as they should be or as one would wish them to be; idealization"

Value, defined by Webster's 1828 Dictionary, is "to consider with respect to importance"

Pragmatism, defined by Encarta World English Dictionary, North American Edition, is "a way of thinking about results: a straightforward practical way of thinking about things or dealing with problems, concerned with results rather than with theories and principles"
