Me? I will explain & debate the same things with friends in person.. when they are willing. I try to follow the rule of "never argue with the obviously ignorant... they will wear you down with sheer loads of nonsense" I have not always followed that rule on Mudcat, because I often feel that my responses are simply leaving alternate theories that *I* am aware of to counter the logical flaws left by others..(such as the aforementioned "Young Earth Creationism" thread). Note, I differentiate between the ignorant and the stupid. Most of those I debate here are NOT stupid. That would be useless. If I could go back in time, realizing what I do now, I'd love to get 'credentials' and write a book and teach a philosophy course on "How to think". "Ve grow too soon old, and too late schmart."
