Anyway, I love this message so much! I posted it to my facebook as well because I think it's such a great message for people of opposing views to come together and build a better world. I've seen that there are a lot of people here who live by this and that's why I'm able to feel comfortable being myself with you guys. Despite our disagreements, I'm still treated with a lot of respect on these forums, and I really appreciate that.
Thank you for posting this Catholic Lady: I enjoyed reading every word. I actually went to school to learn how to be a bridge-builder (or peacemaker). Much like how you feel here with the AF community, I felt like I could truly be myself when communicating my bridge-building thoughts to my professors and classmates in my assignments and projects: IMO, trying to find ways to help people manage their differences more constructively, was very fascinating and rewarding for me; it was truly great to find other people who were interested in this stuff.
With that said, thanks again for posting those marvelous words. Live long and prosper.
P.S. Thank you for your best newcomer vote and for your very kind words.
