| rez, I think you're laboring under a false premise, that one or the other position is easier to defend. Of course everyone will say that THEIR position is easier to defend because they believe they're right.
I think the only way to evaluate positions is, unfortunately, the one that requires the most work. Read through threads that catch your interest and see who you tend to agree with, who you don't, and see how they advance their arguements.
As to weak minds, well, I hope you're not including yourself. Your very presence here shows intellectual curiosity and a grasp of issues. You're young and just like anything, presenting a coherent arguement takes practice, practice, practice.
Oh, and read your newspaper every single morning.
I don't suffer from insanity... I thoroughly enjoy it |
