I think the world has an unnecessary harshness to it at times, and our treatment of people is not always just or justified. We make decisions based on dogma and culture--basically anthropomorphic logic, and it tends to precipitate an intolerance that is not necessary. I am as guilty of that as anyone, and other than to note that in myself and resolve to change as best I can, I'll have to let it go at that.

I do see where the various 'sides' are coming from, and it is not my intent to fault anyone's argument or personal view. I simply will try to amend my own. That will include my language on future threads.

GROK ON!
