Hello fellow thread-shreders. I have just been browsing around a lot of different threads and posts and one thing I see a lot of is the dislike of one people for another group of people. I have really done a lot of soul searching over the years and have truly come to the conclusion that I LIKE EVERYBODY! I cannot pinpoint a single kind, group, color, or race of people that I have any problem with what so ever. Not to say that I have never had a disagreement or problem with someone of another race or creed. Just that when those problems arose, race or creed never had anything to do with it. All I see are people, wonderfully diverse people with the common goal of living happy, fruitful lives. And that is what I want to!! We are all flesh and blood, and we can all learn things from each other if we just let our guard down a little. I bet if everyone really thought about it, they would see that they really did not have a problem with the people they had chosen to dislike. Just think about it, then tell me what you think. I am not trying to make anyone like me, I just think that in this instance, it is the best way to live. Basically, with arms wide open. Thanks for reading!
Thanks for this post I personally do not dislike someone because of a group, although I may dislike personally some paticular group. I think you have a wonderful outlook on life.
I usually have an idea if after meeting someone if I have a good feeling about them or an instinct that they may not be someone I would like, it is usually a vibe I get from them.
I think the way you are going about it, you will be open to many new friends

Thanks for your post. I hope my attitude will be catching. And so far I can honestly say that all the posts so far on this thread have been free of racial or religious bias. That is exactly what I am looking for. I know people will have problems. But if we can keep it on a level ground where all are equal then we will have effectively done away with hate. Well, at least a little anyway. I know this all sounds corny, but hey, I'm an optimist!!!
