Pat,

The only reason I suggested that Brad apologize to you and Mac was that it was a personal attack against all 3 of us. I didn't like seeing Brad take out his frustrations on you and Mac.

I understand completely, and I appreciate your support! And I hope my method of reply did not come across as though I was withholding support from you, because I think we have much in agreement. As Mac says, I like the way you think.

Regarding the polarity of thought: I have always found it interesting that intelligent people can come to different conclusions. I mean serious, honest, soul searched different conclusions... the kind people are willing to fight for.

But If I am honest in my belief in free speech, then it makes sense to avoid fighting over the differences and engage the friendship instead. I like all the people in this forum. Many of the opinions here are not the same as mine, but then, many of their songs are different than I would have written too. I see that as an OK thing. We don't all need to have the same opinion on all issues in order to get along..

Ultimately the best ideas stand on their own two feet.. they don't win because of superior argument, they win because they work, and the other idea doesn't. For that reason, I see no need to fight. Truth and common sense always win in the end whether everyone agrees or not.

But the WISE man lines his thinking up with truth and common sense
