Friends, Squatters & Lurkers--Fishbowl musings

[Underdog]

Pen,

Relax, woman! It's great that you listen to the feedback you get from others. I know you're paying attention...

But don't you think that segregating perceived American values vs. those perceived to exist in the international community isn't a touch, well, bigoted? Not to mention out of touch? And labeling?

We're all part of the human race. And I found the letter intriguing. I'm also a practicing Roman Catholic who possesses views of more ethereal spirituality. I think that many (if not most) of us have unique beliefs that don't fit in the proverbial box.

And labeling people so that the Dx fits neatly isn't just assuming: it's wrong.

That, Pen, is your neighbor's opinion. I don't share it. But let's see what everyone else has to say. Personally, I thought it was thought provoking and a good way to approach the problem from a different perspective.

And most of us who are religious believe in a struggle of good vs. evil. Why not present the other side?

You have GOT to take it easy on the housework, Pen! I swear to you that it's addling your brain...
