Welcome Back Readers
Posted by Joy Bischoff under: General .
Although Terrie and I are focused on other work and projects at this time, we are still following politics and current events and will be sharing our thoughts, although not always on a daily basis. We are sorry we don’t have the time to moderate comments at this time, but as Terrie has explained on the top right side of the page, we welcome your guest blogs as long as they are in keeping with our stated goals.
In my reading lately, I have seen a tremendous need for unity in the fracturing conservative movement. The trend is growing to polarize into small units where others are forced to agree with the consensus or they are firmly ejected from the group. Tomorrow I will blog on the sad display of that trend that I witnessed over the last week on a website I read that supports Mitt Romney. I was profoundly disturbed by some of the sentiments and personal attacks. My purpose will not be to rail on that community, but I will use it to remind all of us how easy it is to fall into the same mental trap that is becoming so prevalent.
There is an example that is found in ancient history of a culture that broke into small tribes as they degenerated into a godless people. That disunity and the inability to allow others to hold differing opinions without reviling them is a strong sign that a civilization is in imminent danger of breaking down. This is why we welcome everyone who sincerely wants to preserve the principles of the Constitution and understands the dangers of socialism that are encroaching upon our nation.
Whether you are a supporter of John McCain, Bob Barr, or any other candidate, or plan on writing in Mitt Romney or Ron Paul in November, we welcome you and encourage tolerance for diverse opinions. We make no compromise or apology about remaining firm on moral principles but we must refrain from judging others for choosing a different path in their attempt to follow the truths outlined by our Founding Fathers.
We would especially welcome anyone interested in guest blogging on the RNC Convention.
