Who else feels like this?

There are days when I come on here and the bickering between sides is enough to make me sick. Wouldn't it be nice if we all followed a rule that our mothers told us when we were young.

"If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all"

If someone picks a fight, don't rise to the bait. It makes you a bigger, better person. It would be nice to squash this "Us v. Them" thing that's going on.

Who agrees?

    Actually, my mom told us "if you can't fight nice than don't fight" I still don't know what she meant.

    I agree, but I answer a question like this about everyday.

    We all could be a little nicer, but if people would just change there attitude then it wouldn't be a problem. You only get upset if you allow yourself. It takes a lot to bother me now and sometimes I like it. lol That's when I seem to answer the best.

    I agree with you. Also, when I see silly questions comparing religious beliefs with something to eat. I can disagree and be respectful. And if there is a question about something in a religion that I don't know, I don't answer it.

    When I first started in Y!A R&S, I was ready for friendly discussions between people of all and no faiths, sharing and accepting. Was I in for a surprise. Now, my gloves are on.
