  • I just love good debate

    The cut and thrust, the opening of ideas and minds and the constant swirl of the argument swinging from one side to another.

    Debate is good, providing its polite of course, do any of you get involved in those long winded Sunday afternoon in the pub debates over "what is the answer to the world, the universe and everything"

    And no its not 42.

      Only as mediator trying to get two people with similar views to see sense that they are often saying the same thing.

        Yes, I quite enjoy a good debate as long as both parties are willing to change their viewpoint. If one person has unchangeable beliefs then there is little point in discussion and it usually ends in being quite heated and ultimately achieves nothing.

            Exactly, its good to as facts you didnt know pop up and can be quite startling. Good job there are no Vulcans as members here. Logically the argument would be lost.

              Um.... 1) Pub? Sunday afternoon? Only if the washing fairies came in to get all the uniform ready Maybe in a few years time
              2) I don't mind a good discussion, when friends visit and we stay up too late setting the world right. BUT, when people start to get a bit stroppy, I get quite distressed, and there are certain people I won't have in my house anymore because theirs is the only opinion that matters. I grew up with that sort of atmosphere, and it really upsets me now!
