I'm new to the Villages.
Wow, the level of discourse here is surprising. I suppose I thought it was limited to the very young and young on social media.
I have a very religious friend who sees the world from the teachings of the Bible and the sermons on Sunday and Wednesday. There is no debate, so we never debate.
Some people deny a creator and other are sure of it.
Some people believe a person is born gay, others believe it is a choice.
Some people believe Trump is the best political leader ever, and others do not. Some in the same party do not.
Some believe in trying a vaccination to stem off potential death, others do not.
In none of the cases above, do I think I can convince you to change a belief by simple argument, regardless how compelling I feel it is.
Over time and through observation, I have changed my opinion on things I once disbelieved or denied.
I don't think there is a quick fix or a pithy factoid that will convince people to change their views on Covid and the Vaccine.
I got the vaccine at the first opportunity and I was aware of the emergency authorization. I made that decision for myself and cannot make it for others. I won't try to convince you one way or the other -- for one, I'm no expert, and two, you don't really care what I think.
