My goal was not to change couch's, japov's, john's or Ray's minds -- I never thought that possible. However if someone else stumbles into the thread, they can see one side using facts and the other side using … well I don't what they are using except for over-generalizations (mixed in with personal attacks) with nothing concrete to back up it up. Feelings don't make a persuasive argument.

But, yeah, if I was trying to change their minds, it would all be a big waste of time.


Political discussions always lead to personal attacks, because people are so passionate about it. They feel insulted or hurt if you disagree with them. If you feel strongly about something, you think you are right.

I dont know why we like to discuss when there is no chance of changing the views. I guess we like fighting.
