Is anyone ever tired of this?

Question

I don't mind talking politics but it seems for so many people that is their only conversation piece. Don't get me wrong, staying informed is very important but it's to the point where I don't watch any of the political news channels. It also seems that too many people don't actually want to debate they just want to bash people or specifically politicians with opposing views.

Answer 1

well said

Answer 2

Yeah, it does get tiresome.

I still try to watch the political news once in a while, but it's hard to find any reportage on that which is truly interesting. (Surprise, surprise)

I keep coming back to Yahoo for those rare moments when we actually do manage to share some valuable information or perspective.

For myself, it's not so much the bashing that I enjoy, but the rhetorical dance.

Precious few Fred Astaires out there, even fewer Ginger Rogers(es)!!

Answer 3

i imagine the actual incontrovertible actuality that we keep seeing those queries in simple terms illustrates that our non Jewish acquaintances do not get a lot contained in the way of solid documents on our faith. we are one of those small team, so if someone would not really know any Jews, they may be uncertain the position to get authentic solutions. for sure, they could use the web yet with the upward thrust in Messianic web content, maximum of which seem as if Jewish internet sites to the unwary, there is the threat that human beings receives thoroughly the incorrect information. the single question that i'm bored to death with seeing day in, day vacation, is 'why do not jews worship jesus?' in spite of everything, Hindus/Muslims/Buddhists/Sikkhs/Pagans/S... and so on do not get requested again and again why they don't worship him! i imagine all Jews could per chance agree on ONE similar reaction to this actual positioned up and then in simple terms ALL keep giving it as an answer. per chance THEN human beings will end asking it!

Answer 4

Anyone with a stick could throw.
Anyone with a voice could yell.

But, it is the wise that seek peace above all else.

Answer 5

Of course we are. But what really torques me is the people who think they have the ONLY opinion. I respect a good debate and someone elses opinion and damned sure expect someone to offer me the same courtesy.

Answer 6

There is more debate on the Fox News Channel than on others. They do tend to have a conservative slant on their presentation, but they let the other side give its views too which often leads to lively and heated debates! (to wit: Oreilly and Geraldo last week).

Answer 7

I second that. Why can't intelligent questions be posted and answered without a bash at something or someone.

Answer 8

I stopped watching the news the day I realized that it was just propaganda. Like calling the controlled annihilation of the twin towers collapses and the investigating the tragedy some 411 days later.

Listening the drones repeat the lies of the Bush regime. Yes it gets old.

Answer 9

Truthfully, as a conservative I feel pounded by the media and get pent up with frustration at the liberal idiocy...so when i see a liberal biased question, or one pertaining to a liberal politician, I feel the need to vent....maybe not the correct thing to do, but it does feel good.....plus things here are so fast paced that a quick barb are about all there is time for...

Answer 10

Amen, brother! My thoughts exactly. We live in a finger pointing society, and people are never accountable for their OWN actions.

Answer 11

Well I do agree I do pay wayy too much attention to this. I suppose at one time I thought I would do this for a living.
