Hey everyone.

I lurk daily but almost never post, but I had something I wanted to say. 

I think you all are a pretty level headed group. Your conversations have been an eye opener for me. I had some pretty rigid thoughts on a lot of things that everyone here has helped me see are ridiculous.

I was staunchly Pro-Life and found abortion abominable, but recently my thoughts have changed, thanks to everyone here. While how I feel about abortions hasn't changed much, I can safely say I'm Pro-Choice now. It really isn't the government's business what goes on in regards to a woman's body. That's for her, and her alone, to decide. I don't have to agree or like it, but I do have to respect it.

That's just one of many things that this board has helped me see more clearly. 

So, keep on doing what you're doing. It may seem like simple conversation, but it can help people that may be ignorant to things (much like I was, and in many ways, still am) find some solid thinking.

  • I wasn't going to post anything but frankly, the cynic in me can't help it. 

    So I'm posting.  

    And I'm cynically suspicious. 

    That is all.  

  • That is great that you are so open-minded and willing to grow. Many people dig their heels in and refuse to evolve. I think that is pretty fantastic of you.

    Look debbie downer, you of all people should know the powers of PC&E posts.  Hell I used to feel hopeful about the economy until you burst my bubble!  I also no longer like old people.  Except for my grandma.  So there you go...proof!
