Your suggestion is valid, no flames to you for making it. But it's a fun
debate, even though it's plowing the same old ground.

Debates end when the people in them get tired of them, not before.

So I'd ask, why do you care? Just curious... Is this debate making the
conversation elsewhere not as good? If not, what's the harm? We're
enjoying it, and some of us are learning new things

their voices be heard, but come on! 280 messages! That probably exceeds the
number of messages in reply to Brad Justus's first post!! I guess what I'm
saying is this: No one is going to solve this debate here on Lugnet. No one.
So maybe we should end it now, before we get five hundred messages.
Also, please don't flame me for posting this message in a thread that is
posted in Off-topic!!

(...) I agree completely. Debates are not for getting results. Actually when the first of religious debates appeared here (at the very early days of Lugnet) I was against it because I thought it might have introduced unnecessary cold feelings (...)
