Interesting Discussions to Follow

conversationI enjoy reading blog posts, but even more, I enjoy following the discussions that result when a post is interesting or hits a nerve.

Organica had a very interesting post on “Muslim Dating” which I found very interesting.  Young people today are finding it harder than ever to find a partner and still do it right.  The comments that followed were mostly deep, thoughtful and interesting.

Sudanese Optimist posted a very racist video made by Egyptians and called it Reason Number 9734 Not to support the Egypt.  I found the video annoying and stupid.  I had never given Sudan much thought to be honest, I never thought that Egypt was better or worse than Sudan.  I just knew that Sudan used to be part of Egypt one day and that there are conflicts in Darfur.  The discussion is a very intellectual and important one.  Please go over there and give the comments a read.  This is what some people think of the Egyptians and Egypt, it just might change your outlook.

And as James Nathan Miller said “There is no such thing as a worthless conversation, provided you know what to listen for. And questions are the breath of life for a conversation.”

On Commenting

I am really curious about why and how often people leave comments on blogs.  Personally, I usually leave a comment when something is really interesting and I have something to add.  Commenting sometimes is a great conversation starter and creates an opportunity for an even more interesting idea to evolve.  You can support ideas, argue logic and so many other things.

Please let me know by answering the poll and leaving a comment on what you really think about blog commenting.
