Christa: I have refrained from expressing certain thoughts, because I

value the trait of NOT BEING JUDGMENTAL.  My preferred way of

communicating is to listen to the other person, and try to understand, but

not to condemn, not to judge.  

There is the issue of certain values and practices that are a BIG part of the

Democrat parties repertoire that I could NEVER VOTE for.  I am only going to

touch on a couple of them.

TRANSGENDERISM:  if Harris had won, I think we would still be in the midst of this tragedy.  I have no problem with adults making this decision, but children need to be protected from it.  It is criminal to remove the breasts or penis from a healthy child (under age 18), and many people who had this done are now several years older and full of regret. I wonder how many trans people regret their decision but would be embarrassed to say so.  It is my opinion that this was a BIG experiment that failed. 

 

I think that ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. I know that Harris said she had a plan to make the border more secure but I wonder if she would have followed through.  A loose border  is not a good thing, because look at what these people go through.

What I hate is cartels taking advantage of people. I hate the bringing in of drugs such as fentanyl and the deaths caused by it. And I hate the human trafficking of children and women. I hate the idea of people dying trying to swim across the Rio Grande, or dying of exhaustion and thirst in the desert as they trek north. I hated it when a truckload of people were abandoned by the driver and they could not escape and died. I hated seeing children just left at the border by adults. Also, what is it like to be undocumented and to wonder when the hammer is going to drop.

 

There are other issues that we differ on.(well, for one DJT)  I have hoped to help you see and understand that people have different worldviews.  Your worldview and mine are miles apart.  To me, that is OK.  The reason it is OK is because I know you are a good person, I know you care about people and want the best for them.  Even though our feelings and opinions differ (especially on the two topics I brought up above), I would NEVER for a moment hint that you have low morals or weak values or ethics. NEVER.  Why? because it is not my role to judge you and I don't think you have low morals an weak ethics.  

 

Conversations about those topics (and others) are fine. (and I guess they are necessary in order to really know a person and what makes that person tick)  But it is not fine when one person in the conversation implies or insinuates that the other person has low moral standards, weak ethics, a low regard for humanity.  WHICH YOU HAVE DONE towards me for a long time.(let me know if I am imagining this).  I have accepted it calmly and lovingly (because I LOVE YOU and respect you) and hope to maintain a loving relationship with you. 

One of the last things you said in our last private FB conversation is something like "I am sorry that you don't think it is important"  Well, I think the most important thing is loving each other, accepting each other (even when our opinions differ), treating the other person with respect, etc. 

 

I don't know what more to say except for this:  that differing political beliefs (as well as differing religious beliefs) should not be a threat to a relationship.  No matter how much your feelings and beliefs differ from mine, I still love you with my whole heart.  I love you unconditionally, and fully accept ALL of you, every aspect of you.  

 

 

 Another thing that I hate is the rhetoric that fills peoples heads with hysteria and hate and convinces them that we are on the verge of reliving a repeat of Germany under Hitler in the 1930s. It convinces the that our government is evil and that to oppose ICE is is a noble thing to do.
