Matt_7_Q

The author really grabbed my attention when she was talking about bringing out the good and not focusing on the evil. And, in somewhat of a reply to previous posts, I can't help but wonder, do you think that it would really be more effective to focus on the positive rather than point out the negative. Using the "Incovenient Truth" documentary, for example- would there have been as much hoopla about it if it had focused on things that are being done to save the environment? Or would people not even have given it the time of day (or a second thought)?

Matt your absolutely right, and I think you may be referencing my post, among others. The bad often gets more attention than the good. What's the common news saying, "If it bleeds it leads."

But, with anything in life, there is always going to be good and bad. The truth needs to be related in stories... I don't know... maybe it is good to focus on the positive, but there is bad in things as well.
