You do see where this could help us all. We can shake hands and return to corners, the fun starts when the bell rings! I think it may be a time to point this out>These corners don't need to be 90 degree's. I know, and would bet a dime to dollar, that at least 4 ppl are watching this. More likely though it is in double digits. I think the Donkey's and the Elephants could learn a lesson from this. Exactly! You do see where this could help us all.

Sometimes the ad hominem arguments and, yeah, some of the high school level humor...is a way to blow off steam. You build up quite a head of steam when you are passionate about something and, well, you need to let it out. Think of it as the virtual equivalent of a pat on the back and sometimes even a manly hug of your adversary. Paradigm, just one point.

First thing I can note is both you and Jeff are adamant and tenacious on your side. Passion in things you believe in is an important trait, that I find admirable. And it is well noted that both of you can describe your ideas well in writing. Our differences in opinion have nothing to do with my respect for either of you. And I hope we can remain friendly adversaries, because after this debate is over, I predict we will have to agree to disagree, that is not the point. The point of the debating process is who gives the best arguments. - Paradigm of Thought Side note, I agree with you Scott, I believe that all of us will be able to find admirable traits.

Both have you have been very valuable as posters, as well as debaters. I'm just trained to react strongly from appeal to ridicule arguments, I guess given my years of experience arguing atheism and agnosticism. This is no excuse. Both of you have contributed valuably to the argument, and I by no means wish to discourage anyone from arguing with me. Scott, I want to say you have an open invitation to argue. I just have one request. As long as the debate is open, please let's keep our arguments within the most basic courtesies, and logical boundaries. I will of course vow to do the same (because my last post was obviously an Ad Homonym attack. I look forward to the continuing of the debate.

I don't want to interrupt or hurt this very interesting debate. I am always learning and edified by listening too.
