Think you might lose interest without an adversary or would you enjoy a 'lets all agree with me' fest?

LOL!!! How many times have I noted that it is those who stand opposed to us that give us the greatest assistance, the greatest insights, and the most worthwhile commentary? Have you not read any of these??
But for one to be such an opponent, one must be willing to acknowledge reality and the nature of reason, for to continue to do otherwise you are merely lashing out arbitrarily and without anything of note. Recall the Python scetch concering arguments and denials? To simply deny all that others say, or to ignore it as you have done, adds nothing to any argument or discussion. To engage others honestly, civilly, and intellectually is to create a situation in which all win, regardless of what point comes out on top. All learn, all move forward in such situations.
Throwing tantrums, insulting, and attacking persons in place of such reasoning necessarily detracts from any discussion in which such behavior is to be found.
I welcome honest able and willing adversaries, for they are our greatest resource. |
