I think we can all say we've done a pretty good job so far
Indeed, Carl.

I really do believe a measure of maturity and how reasonable an individual is, and that of the group/s to which they belong, is just how well they can agree to disagree.

You can learn a lot about people not by just how well they get along when they share the same opinions and values, but at those times when they hold quite opposing views.

I may not share the same opinion as others, on occasion, but I'll respect their right to hold, and express, an alternate opinion.

This has been a great thread.
