The Old Catch 22

I love a good Catch 22; I hate a good Catch 22. Just kidding.

I was trying to think about a good topic for my blog today. I came up with a great discussion on how some people who are vehemant in their beliefs and thoughts will argue without end to beat into the head of another their views and beliefs. Personally, I think that this is wrong. I think that everyone has a right to their own thoughts, views, beliefs, etc., even if I don't agree with them. Then the thought occured to me. By writing such a blog, aren't I doing the very thing that I am condemning?

I often feel strongly about or against things, but I try to remember the other side of the coin. For instance, I am against same sex marriages, but I have homosexual friends. I do not believe in abortion, but I can understand why someone might choose to have one.

I'm not sure exactly who coined the phrase "CATCH 22" (although I'm sure it would be easy enough to Google), but he/she had something there.
