I do convey my points with confidence and conviction, and I understand that can be intimidating for some. But the fact that I'm very sure of myself, perhaps excessively so at times, does not justify resorting to personal attacks. Just match my assertiveness with assertiveness of your own; aggression is not necessary. I always won all the debates in school and that can definitely be frustrating when you're on the other end of that. But again, try not to take it so personally. If everyone puts forth the best logic and avoids the temptation to get emotional, the debate will inevitably lead to increased clarity on all sides of an issue that would otherwise not have been possible. That's why it's important that you try to let go of your resentment and follow the cool, even, unending center line of logic. If you can master that, these discussions will be far less frustrating for you. =) > > I'm sorry if I crossed any lines, I made my case.
