BTW if you all want to make it an offical debate and not an argument, we can provide the forum with a format and rules in place for both sides to make their point and leave the conclusions to the viewers

The difference here is I had never posted.

Bro. Badejo did post and has severely misrepresented the discussion that was had on AMF.

Was I missing part of the law Prax?

It is an opportunity for you to stand up and set it straight. This issue has never thoroughly been discussed. What say you?

You could copy and paste it to a thread over here if you'd like to. No need to rewrite. I'd be interested in your viewpoint.

Again, I hate that the discussion came to this.

Maybe.

However, to do so at this time is to be goaded into a debate that is already high in emotion. I don't believe rational discussion can be had when emotion is this much involved.

I never post on AFF, but I may come back after things have settled down and ressurect this topic so that we can discuss it without the emotion of this situation.

I love honest debate. I believe it helps us grow in our understanding of where we stand, as well as open our minds to new points of view. It also helps us learn how to articulate what we believe and defend it against oppositional views.

I was thinking the same thing. There is NO reason not to.

Actually the thing to do would be to start a brand new thread. (Don't post it here.)

As long as it isn't against AMF rules I wouldn't be opposed to that happening. It was in response to specific points made by Bro. Badejo, so those would need to be posted as well in order to give my response context.

As I said in a previous post just now, I wouldn't mind ressurecting this discussion at a later date. AFTER the emotion of the situation has died out.
