I want to put forth a request to this group. I know theres a rule against namecalling already, but I would like to ask that we stop calling people, regardless of any presumed naivete or ignorance we feel their statements express, sheep or sheeple. While I havent yet been called such, I find it to be a truly condescending term. We are all open to our own views, beliefs, and opinions. And we all have the right to state those opinions. But can we please do so without, however subtly, disregarding someone else for theirs just because we dont agree? Friendly, professional debate is fine, and often quote refreshing. Its great to have a forum where we can debate our sides. But it is possible to defend our own wide without discounting someone elses. Anyway...just the two cents of an average member of this group. Thanks all.
