This country needs a National Reconciliation Week/Month

[phoebe]

We need moderate voices throughout this country to set up "teach ins" on race relations, religion, homophobia, children's issues, women's issues, men's issues - you name it..because we are tearing this country and ourselves apart.

I am getting really sick of the "us" and "them" mentality that is rife in this country. It's time for some deep introspection about our core values and what they mean to all of us.

4. good idea

A lot of the things I've heard in the past three years reflect thinking that should've been relegated to the dustbin of history, to use the cliche. (You know what and whom I'm talking about!)

The country really *is* falling apart.
