Come the Revolution / Do People believe everything they read? (merged)

AAG. Wht difference does it make whether one questions or not? Aren't the facts laid bare in front of your eyes? Some of us can't afford to go to Iraq (and believe me, it is not because of financial reasons), so our only resolve is to read what newspapers and TV has to offer. The golden rule is that NYTimes covers everything that's "fit to print". There is a lot of garbage around, so be a little picky about what you read/watch. You can, by all means, question the morality of stands that people have taken, but how can you question the events?? Can you question that War is not happening?

Thing is NYAhmadi,

One must question what one reads. Not what they see or experience. But what they read? Yes. Definately. If you trust the New York Times, cool, paper has a pretty good rep. But my thinking is that some people read editorials and commentary as FACT when they are just someones opinion. And I think alot of people in the world do that because they can't tell the difference between FACT and opinion. Thus my comment.

I totally agree with you. Good point :k:

AAG. Good point. If you can identify what is rumor and what is propaganda, you don’t need to worry about it further. But I guess you are questioning whether others can do so. Well, most can, and some will never.

I am worried about the inhale part not teh cards part, cuz in the mind meld i gues si got yer credit card acct numbers, offshore tax haven accts and daaaaaaaaaaang...u inhaled as well..wow

okay now i dont feel as bad.

anyways back to the point..that was the reason for thsi website in many ways for people to have the abilitu to discuss perspectives and views, news and events and see them from a diff set of eyes to increase understanding.

We keep shoving down our own views on others, thats when it becomes kinda futile
