I think lots of people hereon are interested in the truth--whatever the topic and certainly about our Republic etc.

There are also a lot of strong emotions within a lot of strong, independent, unique perspectives folks are on here, too.

And, there's more than a few people hereon with serious amounts of RAD (Attachment Disorder) still quite concerned (consciously or unconsciously) with proving who's manhood is longer/breast size bigger/hat size larger.

Such folks tend to be addicted to p*ssing contests without caring how many bystanders get sprayed how much. Facts one way or the other don't tend to impress such folks--they seem to be immune to facts or allergic to them or to think they have a corner on the facts market that no one else has.

imho, we have to extend a lot of grace to one another. None of us understand anything perfectly. None of us have perfect and complete knowledge about anything, even about ourselves. Humility is in order for all of us.

The tableau of the human drama is potentially a source of never ending interest and amazement in its diversity and complexity. We can all enjoy that, if we choose to.
