I would like to know if you desire for the forum to stay focused on politics and political issues or can things news/world related but not politically related be discussed?
I think that while many of us are socially diverse, we may find that we have some common ground on other issues.
Example -
My aunt & I find common ground on issues of caring for life and sustainability while we disagree on abortion. (She is very pro-choice.)
Second question - where would you like discussions of food sustainability, local living, living simply to be put?
Note - I am not a neo-environmentalist. I come from the old farm school, where you cared for the land, reduce waste and didn't dump chemicals into the soil as a matter of common sense and practicality and service to and respect for the Creator. But I find that I have much in common with those that are environmentalist for other reasons.
