Other than that, practically all of my other beliefs were very liberal. I doubted the existence of God, I believed in the practical reasons for abortion, saw the possible need in end of life issues and even felt somewhat bitter of wealth in those who seemed to be unworthy of their wealth. All those gradually changed bit by bit over the years until I became very much Conservative through and through. So, with age, comes wisdom. I'm glad to see that you have an open mind that will probably guide you well on a path that I took so many years ago. And.....before I forget, WELCOME to DP. I'm not familiar with you or any of your posts (until recently) so if you are indeed a new member, I hope you have a pleasant stay and look forward to some great discussions.
