I have just had a wonderful conversation with 3 people (@dschach, @peterscampbell, @tracy1314) on Twitter about Rick Warren and the Obama inauguration. I hope to write a post about my opinion on this topic later. However, I am quite smitten with this dialog. This is the second time that I have had a great online conversation that has challenged me and helped me to grow. It is possible.
You have to read from the bottom up for it to make any sense. Even then, it's very disjointed, but then that is how all this social networking stuff works, right, disjointed?

dschach: @conches Ask Obama - he's paying the price by angering you and all who share your opinion. He's losing inauguration viewers, etc.Reply · View Tweet · Show Conversation

peterscampbell: @conches He's advocated for both (although more loudly about Don't Ask than DOMA). Here's a good post on this: http://snurl.com/8vakq (expand)

conches: @peterscampbell Do we have any reason to believe that he will? Please say yes :)

peterscampbell: @conches if Obama works to repeal DOMA and DADT, supports equality, etc., isn't that what's important, and what we sould measure by?
-
conches: @peterscampbell I am full agreement. But, Rick Warren compared homosexuality to incest. Reaching out via Rick Warren accomplishes nothing.
-
conches: @tracy1314 Hell yes! :)

peterscampbell: @conches I couldn't function in a job if I didn't reach out to people that I disagree with. It's the nature of successful politics.

conches: @tracy1314 I am in complete agreement that R Warren is no worse than what we have had before. I and demand better.

conches: @peterscampbell Legitimizing Rick Warren (homosexuality is like incest) by having him bless this presidency builds no bridges. destroys one.

conches: @tracy1314 What post? Presidential pastor? Is that a post?

conches: @peterscampbell reaching out to bigots and hate mongers is inappropriate at best.

peterscampbell: @conches It's the Prez's job to build bridges. It's our job to tell him where they should take us.

peterscampbell: @conches Obama is reaching out to all Americans - even the bigots. It's entirely consistent. Mind you, boycotting is a valid commentary.
