Don't worry about the back and forth banter of this particular thread.....it's nothing more than you might find if all were in a room together, talking over munchies and drinks, really. Some topics bring out more of an emotional response than others and soon, all will be on to another topic.

Jump in, write, it's nice to have another voice "heard."...
Loonlovers, welcome. Please don't be discouraged. As Pooh noted, this issue has drawn passionate opinions on several fronts.

Pooh is a dear friend of mine. I truly love her. Gracie too. The fact that we to see this particular issue differently does not diminish my esteem, admiration or love for them. I hope and believe that they don't think less of me either.

I do try to explain my reasonings for my views such that people can understand my perspective whether or not they agree. However, I
hope that I will never express an opinion with such certainty, lack of humility and/or hostility toward the other side that friendship and respect becomes strained or impossible. I think some of the political threads get that way and I avoid them. I hope this thread didn't strike you that way. If I ever do anything like that, I hope someone will take a chainsaw to what is left of my P(ea) brain. Or at least take me aside and let me know that I've crossed a line.

Please don't think ill of us, Loonlovers. We mean well.
