As a person who welcomes the struggle that is life, I have grown weary of the polarizing conceptualization of thought. If you are conservative you MUST ascribe to all the tenets of what it means to be a conservative. If you are liberal, the same is asserted. And God forbid you dare to disagree with the status-quo of either. Then you are vilified as some sort of traitor. If you embrace the spirit of these statements, you are In The Middle!! In The Middle is intended to provide an additional venue of discussion for those of us with centrist views. Just a few ground rules.
1) Own your thoughts. Try to express opinions as just that, opinions. Please be open to owning your views without simply stating the view points of others as universally accepted positions of fact.
2)Disagree with positions without resorting to stereotypical labeling. I am neither conservative nor liberal, I am me. All of us In The Middle, are seeking to make sense of this thing called life in the most life-affirming manner we know how.
3) Any person-directed profanity gets you ignored if not out right booted from the site. Sometimes a vulgar words is the best means to capture your emotions. However, it will never be tolerated as a descriptive of another individual.
Let's get rolling. It's time those of us In The Middle allow our voices o be heard.
