It makes me sad that others feel they can't say what they want to for fear of what will happen.

We should be able to state our views without using hateful language or being to nasty. I don't see why others should feel that they can't share their views and feelings, even if you are not agreeing with others or if you are not of the 'standard' religion or belief. As long as you are respectful and and post with an actual open mind, willingness to hear others view, and agree to disagree, we are all adults here and should be able to act as such. I love to hear others view and post my own dissent!

We also need to be mindful of the fact that sometimes we ALL have bad days and ALL post at times that are(to quote Daniel) 'pissy' or maybe not the most appropriate. Some days are like that. Those are the times we have to forgive each other and realize we are human.

I have not seen many posts go to the foyer these days, but a bit of excitement is not a bad thing. I feel that we have need to have a place where we can spew our venom and it's not unexpected. The foyer is that place.
