Do you also find in your community you are more reluctant to talk about your beliefs? I believe that we have become intimidated by the P.C. police.

Well, I'm pretty outspoken....and I've been told "now, don't talk about this or that when you go for an interview, or don't speak out first about what you believe because...." I find myself monitoring myself for the reason you stated...P.C. police. And, additionally, people usually "just don't get it" or "don't care." It's amazing....how can someone NOT passionately care about this country? Their eternal life? What their existence really means? Why they're here? But it's true; I just don't get into deep discussions with most people because they either aren't "into it," are willfully ignorant, or just "don't want to dwell on all the 'negative' news. As if sticking your head in the sand makes it all go away.......and that I just "don't get."

You just described my feelings and actions nicmarlo. I can't even talk to a couple of my own children. They are hopelessly brainwashed and they believe that I'm the one who is brainwashed. But I read read read and keep up with as much as I can that is going on in the world. They never crack a book and get their news from NPR. Who do you suppose is brainwashed?
