pity this is so short.. "why did 9/11 happen?' and she gets 1 min 30 seconds to say not much.
Americans were surprised at the level of animosity out there towards them I think? It has a lot to do with what the US Govt got up to covertly and overtly in the name of the ordinary American, and nothing to do with Dubya's mantra of 'they hate us 'cause we're so free' crap.
Americans are fine people, just as Afghani's and Iraqi's are… but broadly unaware of how their Govt represents them in the world.

Dear Julia:
don't be discouraged by the lack of response. I for one am listening. Post more to describe your postion. BigThink is very sexist I'm sad to say though. Women are not taken very seriously here.

Come on PastorJ 'experts' are very seldom engaged with here. I've never seen them actually reply so perhaps it's understandable. Perhaps you are being over sensitive?

Herbie's right… the experts never respond anyway? and it would be nice if these idaes could be kicked around a bit… Big T is a bit of a lottery in many ways… you never know which idea will have legs and which won't.. and hopefully we'll keep the sexism to a minimum PJ? I for one value the brilliant women who have posted, and would only encourage more to get amongst it.

"Expert" opinions are like drive-by operations. They like the thrill of the ego-boost, but rarely return to the scene. I'm sure they feel superior, and beyond our level of understanding. I hope I'm proven wrong someday.
I have much more respect for those of us that are approachable, and involved. I think the "experts" are only bait for folks like us. We're the ones who really benefit from this forum, because we're involved.
