Looks like we already have our first winner in this thread.
It's usually the same few people who just can't help themselves and need to bait or start throwing stones at "the other side" to prove some totally fact-free point about how they think that's the root of every problem no matter how unrelated to politics. It gets incredibly tiresome. I say swing that ban hammer.
My grandmother always told me that there were two things you never discuss with other people “religion and politics”.
Maybe it’s the Van Buren Boys trolling to get a rise out of everyone.
What about threads that discuss religion? Is it just politics that is off limits? I'm all for a Merry Christmas or Happy Easter type of thread, but do we really need threads talking about what a great guy somebody is because of his faith in Jesus or God or whatever?
She was a devout Catholic and my other grandmother was a devoted Baptist so it’s the way I was raised.
I disagree with Granny. Those two topics need to be discussed. Without the discussion you have blinders on and you don't learn what you don't know about another point of view. Or what is difference between Protestants, Catholic, Presbyterian , Jewish, Agnostic etc.
Discussion yes, argue, NO.
Discussion yes, argue, NO.
Unfortunately more often than not those discussions turn heated. Thus the no posting of those topics on message boards.
I won't disagree with that. It's too easy to be misinterpreted on a message board and it's too easy to throw darts from behind a blind keyboard.
But face to face, absolutely. That's how we learn from each other
I’m locking this thread now. Like I said. Enough with the political and religious posts.
