Green Speech #27 -Listening to Loshon Hara -Encourages

Certainly easier said than done but listening to Loshon Hara (someone speaking derogatory, hurtful, damaging words and gossip) is not only  a negative prohibition unto itself but also - by listening to someone speaking to Loshon Hara you are unintentionally providing a stumbling block for the blind.

When listening to unavoidable Loshon Hara try not to show interest-perhaps it will limit the amount of Loshon Hara spoken because maybe they will feel that there isn't a willing audience.
