In our house, everyone's opinion is welcome. I grew up in a house where everything wasn't when it came to politics or religion.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'll be honest with you: politically, I have no issue with people, but my beef sometimes is with religion at the end of the day.
I never considered a difference of opinion in politics, in religion, in philosophy, as cause for withdrawing from a friend.
Ours was not a political household, when I was growing up.
The older I get, the less I know. By that I mean the less I am sure of. I view people with strong opinions on the big stuff with distrust. I don't think we should have certain certainties on faith and politics; I think we should be open-minded.
I'm really not interested in other people's opinions, because I think frankly most of those opinions are either misinformed and adding to this endless ball of hot air we have in our society where everyone thinks their opinion is valuable and sacred and what counts.
I grew up in a household where we talked politics a lot and argued politics a lot.
Contrary to what everyone thinks, in my family, we didn't talk about politics at home.
We cling to our own point of view, as though everything depended on it. Yet our opinions have no permanence; like autumn and winter, they gradually pass away.
I grew up in a very conservative home.
Your mom was right when she told you never to discuss politics and religion because emotions run so high in those arenas. Especially religion.
