@Ivy,
Part of the reason why younger generations seem to be more tolerant of others is because they've seen the hypocrisy of past generations.For example, you've planted the morality flag in the ground for years here. Your consistent hateful tone and choice of words are openly in contradiction to a person who actually has morals and self respect though. If an outsider can see this, surely those around you have noted this for years....especially younger generations of your family.
The way a person lives and carries himself speaks louder than any religious posturing or verbal claims of morality.
Those who are religious (I'm not really the older generation yet), like myself, have never claimed to be perfect or immune to the same foibles common to everyone (we just recognize our need for a Savior while the younger generation often doesn't). I freely admit I can have a temper at times, and feel strongly about certain things, but I don't think there's anything on this board that I care enough about to truly
hate.
I've made no secret that I loath Obama's blatant hypocrisy. He made this big pretense of believing in traditional marriage in order to get the votes necessary to get into the White House. But it's obvious to any objective observer that he's always had liberal leaning views on homosexuality, transgenders, etc. and only now feels free to express them.
One of the things I feel very...and I mean
very...strongly about is animal abuse. If you click on that link, what you should be upset about isn't my saying (insert N word here) but the evil SOB's treatment of that dog.
Perhaps I could be a little more eloquent or whatever in expressing my views, especially when I'm angry, but you can't argue what I said about both schmucks above certainly applies.
