Perhaps it's because you don't vote - but the reason I ignore politics as much as possible isn't a lack of interest in the way the world works or things go together, but because it always seems to be done so very wrong. It's been long and long that anyone's done something I could be proud of being part of as an American. Because I *do* so self-identify, it's painful to me.
For myself, I'm more likely to pay attention to international politics or religious trends worldwide, or what one might call the "mental state" of a group of people rather than what my own government does or doesn't do. Heavens, my *city* government annoys and disgusts me, how much more so the other levels?
Speaking of which, what are your thoughts on the efforts by (some) leading Muslim and Christian leaders to find common ground?
