Can’t live with ‘em, can’t live without ‘em
Living with differences can be hard:
There are problems when people divorce and have conflicting views on what the children’s religious upbringing should be (“Religion Joins Custody Cases, to Judges’ Unease“.
There are problems when people live together and the end up adopting different diets (“I Love You, But You Love Meat“).
Check out this quote from the latter article:
No-holds-barred carnivores, for example, may share the view of Anthony Bourdain, who wrote in his book “Kitchen Confidential” that “vegetarians, and their Hezbollah-like splinter faction, the vegans … are the enemy of everything good and decent in the human spirit.”
I don’t think that kind of thing helps us live together.
