Oh...maybe I voted wrong then! LOL
I know that online forums do change people's way of thinking...some at least. Not mine though.

I don't know that I can say an online forum could or does change my views, but I do believe it helps me understand other points of view also.

But if you have been merciful, then God's mercy toward you will win out over his judgment against you .

While I haven't changed my views, the mental calisthenics going on around here have helped me consider the way I think about things. The secondary influence (conversations and relationships made outside the forums), ironically has been the most helpful along those same lines.

'influenced' my ways of thinking - yes.
'changed' my ways of thinking - no
I agree tho, reading here has helped me to become more understanding of how others think and believe about things. I think that's important.
