First of all I would like for this to not become a hateful, mean, offensive or nasty thread. I know its going to be difficult for you guys but let's try our best. Haha jk :) Anyways... I'm sure most of you have noticed that there is so much hate and anger going around. And I'm not just talking about OffTopic. Its everywhere you go. People are mean and rude. Now I'm a pretty young little sprite, so I'm thinking maybe things have always been this way..? But I tend to think there were days when people didn't agree with each other and it was OK. I like to think maybe fifty years ago there was more common sense. Even little kids are just down right mean to each other. Christians hating on the non Christians and vise versa. Political parties tearing down the other. We have no honor in our society. And really I could go on and on but I have a feeling y'all know what I'm taking about. So when and why did all of this start? Has it always been this way and I'm just noticing it? Why is there so much hate and anger? Why are there so many families being torn apart? I have my own opinions but I thought it would be an insight to see what your guys' opinions are as well. And please be respectful. I love a good debate and just because I think one way doesn't mean everyone has to think like I do. Everyone comes from different backgrounds and different stories. You never know what a persons been through to shape their line of thinking. But please feel free to tell me how you feel. Thank you :) Edit: I'm not sure my point is getting across. I'm not complaining so much about life in general. I just don't think its that hard to be civil and respect people. And yet almost everywhere I look I see disrespect and dishonoring.
