My attentionspan is too short to be heavily into debating or discussing anything.
Sumtimes I will try to make other people see my point of view. Or help them to understand that their point of view is whatever it is.
Not many are open enough to change their minds.
I am smart enough to know I am not intelligent...
I leave that up to SoulPower...

You mean that he knows that he is unintelligent? I don't know if he has figured that out yet!

Just kidding, Soulpower...

I debate

laugh at flames

and sigh at arguing


I second that emotion.
Of the 3, debating is the most interesting because it's the most challenging, & it's the most challenging because it requires the most THOUGHT. It's
TOO EASY
to say to someone
"oh you're a fucking asshole!"
simply because they have a different opinion..

arguing can require
s o m e
thought, but then you ride that fine line of being either "rational" or "irrational" & once that "emotion" kicks in, you lose whatever advantange you have..

SO,
the most reasonable thing to do is present your point of view- with 3 or 4 or more items to support your position.. & if you can do that, you can be satisfied that you presented your p.o.v., & the other side should at least respect that you presented a
r e a s o n a b l e
argument..


anyway, that's what
I
aspire to do...
I'll see you tonight..
in ALL MY DREAMS..
