One America News is somewhat conservative, could that be it?
Let me help you with something. Consider it very friendly advice, possibly the best you'll ever get for the rest of your life.
Don't blindly accept something because it appeals to you, nor deny something because it's unpleasant.
Reality covers a wide spectrum.
I am well aware of that, as I have worked as an engineer for 21 years and I had to repeatedly relearn that lesson;
dont shy away from facts or you will have to do five times the work undoing what you mistakenly performed and then reworking it the right way, and that rework process itself introduces new problems all on its on as what could have been clean code winds up looking ass backwards and performs less efficiently as it strains to meet its functional requirements.
For example, I just made myself a new walking cane. It is not perfect, but as I shaped the handle, I wanted it to be ambidextrous, and I tried the feel of it in each hand and then ground and sanded it more over and over, and
it started to look asymetrical.
I didnt like the look of it at all. It leaned to the right as I would hold it in either hand. I would hold it in one hand then the next, and it felt great but it looked ugly. Yesterday morning I decided to scrap it and start over.
But as I did various things with my wife, saw some movies and did a little 4 mile hike, I kept thinking that I shouldnt get rid of the cane simply because of how it looked. The looks were not my primary concern, the feel of the cane in both hands was the priority. And since the grip of the left hand is slightly different than the grip of the right hand, why am I surprised that the handle would wind up looking different, a physical manifestation of the differences of my two hands?
So this morning I took another look at the handle and it wasnt as exaggerated as I was remembering. There was definitely a lean to the rightward side, but it was still over the center of the shaft of the cane. I sanded it down more and it began to look beautiful again, to me anyway.
Because I stuck to the criteria of what I was trying to accomplished I unexpectedly found something that I now think of as beautiful though it looks very different than what I had envisioned.
This is a recurring aspect of conforming and shaping our mental concepts of Reality to the Reality itself and not trying to impose our own preconceptions on it as we go searching for Truth.
Truth often shocks and surprises us in what it turns out to be as opposed to what we expected when we began our search.
Which is why I am no longer a member of the church I grew up in, have moved to a new state in a different part of the country and have very different views than what I held when I was 18 years old. I have grown and learned and become a more useful tool for the Hand of God whenever HE uses me, just as when He uses everyone to suit His purposes.
It is a shame that you leftards simply have deprived yourself of this process of growing in an honest search for Truth, as it has been (other than my marriage and raising two great kids) the best thing I have ever done in my life.
