I will not support goodness, and then support someone who is far beneath that level. That is hypocrisy.
Nothing good would come from meeting. I speak to you on this because it is your suggestion. I will NEVER label people by race, heritage, religion, heritage or political pursuation and then attack them. I know, by your emotional response to defend those who do that on here, that it would never work.
I DO however hope that those in here who simplynhate for the shallowest of reasons, and embrace untruths are not like that off the forum, but then that would puzzle me. Why not be who you are and be proud. But the fact that you recognize the phonies yourself makes any public meeting a bit uncomfortable. That would be my "why not"

I will grant you that. Some folks have said so many awful things to others that it would be very difficult to stand in their presence. I am known to all of you. You know where I live and you know about my family and you know my real name and many of you don't like me. I must say that in my REAL life I have made few real enemies, simply because I choose not to allow people who I don't feel comfortable with very close to me for very long. I don't beat dead horses and I give live ones with nasty attitudes a real wide berth.
This debating stuff is relatively new and probably comes from the fact that since I am nearing eighty, I know I have a short time to say what is on my mind. I am very troubled by this world and the direction it is going.
