Reply #5: I think you were right...and that may be the basic difference between "us" [View All]

and "them". They believe they are always right, and see everything in terms of black and white. "You are either with us or against us."

I believe what distinguishes us is that we tend to examine many facets of a story or concept.
That is why "Democrats" is such a big tent. It covers every shade of grey inclusive between black and white.
It is why the ACLU can defend Rush Limbaugh AND the Chicago 7.
I think that we very rarely can state moral absolutes, but tend to see mostly in relativistic terms.
That is what they hate about us, and what we cannot comprehend about them.

EDIT: Ask her about the absolute morals of Sun Hudson vs Terri Schiavo
