Her page, her rules. Interesting interaction on the Facebook page of a local acquaintance. This person had posted a video by the guy who does the daily rant. His website shows him clutching a gun and he posts videos that claim he is sharing what “we all want to say.”
Cringing at that. I had commented that while I don’t like to throw the baby out with the bathwater and some of what he says may have merit, his values and mine don’t match up. A friend of hers asked what right I had to judge. I then asked what the difference was between judgment and discernment. The page owner’s comment was “drop it.” So I did and then jumped off as a ‘friend’.
How do you keep from judging the values of another if you believe they are endangering? I know there are many who feel my left-leaning sentiments endanger their way of life, for which they might kill to defend.
