RE: [ga] Re: What list forwards to what list
I am seeing those of us who post spending our time arguing about what "our"
individual point of view is about a subject. Is that the purpose of ga? I
don't think it is, and I am looking forward to seeing a path to
communication which might be like a conversation where individuals respect
the speaker, even if they don't agree with the viewpoint. That might enable
some of us to better understand each other -- even if not everyone...
That might be progress of some kind.

It most certainly does create a barrier. Not a physical one, but no less
strong a barrier anyway.

As do I, that people have such a problem with rules that simply require them
to
act with common civility.
