A good thread. The way we discuss things is more about knowledge than politics. This is what I like about the internet: It levels the playing field for the sharing of knowledge for those who re interested.
Jacqui, I agree that the internet has been a valuable source of a wealth of timely information. At times, however, I think it has contributed to the problem, but giving some people a means of bullying, disagreeing with disrespect, etc., because it’s “easier” to do so when you don’t have to face the person.
I was thinking last night, it’s no wonder we’re always at war with foreign nations. We fight amongst ourselves with regularity, how could we possible hope to get along with other cultures?

So true, Velda. Not sure what the solution is, but I often wonder how and when things will begin to turn around.
