I migrated here from a community that is experiencing the same sort of difficulties. I participated for about 3 yrs. It got to a point that I no longer felt like "my compadres" and I were of the the same mind set. This troubled me!!!

I have learned that an open forum has to expect that there will be comments made that are considered counter productive.

I, and I repeat I...have come to the conclusion that if we are going to promote open discussion... about anything!!! ....we have to accept that there will be posts that APPEAR to not understand what it is that TBN considers Ideal.

Interpretation has sooo much to do with this. Society as a whole is experiencing a new "what is acceptable" issue.

so long as no one disparages or enflames "without regard" for others...I can, for the most part live with it.

It's really all about respect for one another!!!
