I find it so sad when both sides of this issue honestly think they have the moral high ground and are unwilling to make reasonable compromises. This is an issue that is dividing families into clear camps complete with all the tribal talking points associated with the various positions - right where they want us. As long as everyone is thinking the other guy is the problem, we are not focusing on the real villains in this story. If we are going to beat this evil we are going to have to attempt to find some common ground we can agree on instead of insisting on the other guy giving up their strongly held beliefs - no matter how misguided they may be. This holiday season has been rough for many people. I pray that although the old memories may not be maintained in the manner we have become accustomed to, but that we make new memories worthy to passed down and that will last into the future. Merry Christmas.
