You are correct... "I" won't change anyone's mind on this... but someone will read it, and start googleing it as I did, maybe see something.... my mind was changed when someone pointed these things to me. So.... Yes... someone's mind can be changed. Someone who wants to know the truth. If someone shows me something different and can prove it to be so.... I will change again. I will continue to keep my mind open and continue to post for the others who keep their minds open.

I am sure that if you just smile when someone says something that you are convinced is wrong, yes you will not lose a friend but you will leave them in the dark ages. Angie, your post above should open eyes to the point that if you say nothing at all, you are close to lying to your friends. I also would not want to be surrounded by people posing as my friend while hiding behind the fake smile. We should all put on our adult face and stand up for what you believe in. Don't be mean, but be honest with your friends and yourself and tell them if you disagree.
Again, great post Angie
