RE: RE: Liberalism

Steve Brenneis responds to Behethland B. Clark:

I didn't call you arrogant. I said the attitude is arrogant. It is arrogant because it implies that anyone who doesn't agree is either simple, gullible, or both.

There is a big difference between insult and disagreement. If you find disagreement insulting, you should check your predicates. I'm sorry you choose to take my comments personally since it lessens the debate. I have not resorted to ad hominem. If you are as open to differing opinions as you claim, you must learn to separate what is personal and what is not. If I intend to resort to ad hominem, you will know it because I am un-subtle in that regard.

Debate is pointless without disagreement. If we all agreed on everything, there would be no debate and we would all die of boredom.
