My little exercise in limiting Sound Off comments is over -- for now.
The intention was not to restrict opinions, just to give readers and editors and Sound Off administrators a break from two subjects that can become tiring.
There is just something about religion and politics that makes people dig in, entrenched in strong opinions and often stridently insistent. Probably because both are subjects based on beliefs, and therefore no one can ever be proven wrong.
I really don't like to discuss religion or politics, even though I have very definite opinions and strong faith in both categories. I just don't like the debate that either topic involves.
That said, we had our one-week break in Sound Off, just in time for the bombardment of national political stuff that will follow the Democratic and Republican conventions in the next few weeks.
Stay tuned. We may need another break before November.
