Now people are being stampeded into the Bush campaign over gay marriage, and vice versa. I do not see much of this yet. Perhaps, I am not looking. People are strange. Indeed they are. I can remember my dad and his brothers arguing politics when I was a kid. They got pretty intense, but it seemed rational enough to me. Of course I was a young pup then. IMO, the internet is not a good tool for arguing politics because it does not lend itself to a legitimate debating process - especially, on most SI political threads. Speaking of the Pope - why do you suppose the Vatican has been so quiet on the terrorist issue? One of the few comments I recall was the Pope speaking out against the Iraq invasion.
