My ideal of Net debate was Teremia's M00bies reads the b00ks thread, where a wealth of opinions was flung on the table like a heap of multi-colored jewels, each unlike the other, all adding to the brilliance of the total. (Forgive the metaphors of a severely sleep-deprived writer :oops:) Posters wo...

Sorry, Whist, but I have to disagree with you. Yes, you are a conservative (read right-wing if you wish), fundamentalist Christian, but you are not militant. You don't try to push your views on other people, and you are unfailingly respectful. That is not militant. One of the things that I greatly v...

Jn, the subject of the melding of Catholic and African animist traditions in the Americas in Voodoo, Candomble, Santeria and other traditions would be worth a thread of its own. I've been present during Yoruba ceremonies in which different Orisha (roughly equivalent to the Valar of Tolkien's mytholo...

Yes, that is it exactly. Unfortunately, stupidity can sometimes be just as dangerous as malice. ETA: One thing that I don't want to see happen is have this thread osgiliate into a political discussion about President Bush. I know that some here are supporters of the president and others are not. Let...

TP appears to support current legal precedent which (mostly) prohibits religious displays on government property. She makes the point that they must necessarily be paid for with tax dollars. I don't think this is an especially strong point - surely all of us have some objections to how our tax doll...

Vinnie, you are mediator as part of your legal work and hence must be able to place your hands (keystrokes?) on material which provides some guidance on how to argue civilly (ie argue an idea, rather than argue a person). It may be a Very Good Thing if you could create a Dummy's Guide to Debating o...

Some Thoughts on Disagreeing
I thought about putting this in the Welcome forum, but this is really the obvious place for it. I think it is natural for people of good will to shy away from disagreeing with each other. Particularly on the internet where it is so easy for people to be misunderstood, and for feelings to be hurt uni...

I think (though I could be wrong) that Imp was speaking figuratively rather then literally, making the point that she was posting her own thoughts rather then responding to the things that others had written. In any event, Imp, I thought that what you said followed naturally from what I and others h...
