I think it's high time we make real friends with those on the "other side", whichever side for you that is. We can't move forward unless we learn to talk to each other and understand the other stance. Otherwise it's like shouting from opposite sides of the room, isn't it? I'm lucky to have a co-worker here at church that's a democrat, and she's my favorite person to talk politics with.

Welcome to MY family. Views from all sides, and we all get along.

I haven't heard much about this, but I'm starting to realize myself that history taught with a decided slant breeds thought with that same decided slant.

Since I prefer my history to come from the actual mouths or pens of those who lived it, it's more time consuming to collect those truths.

Sadly, I'm finding that nobody seems to care all that much what history has to say.
