    Why not talk things out?

    Is there some magical number of replies that are acceptable?

    Or is it that people with whom you disagree should be shut down and not allowed to speak?

    Imagine that! A board designed for discussion where discussion is discouraged.


    When it gets to the point where the arguments are redundant that you need to move on and talk about something else. Say your peace, listen to the rebuttal, and if you still disagree, move on.

    There’s an art to discussion and debate.

        That's not a discussion.

        That's just two people talking past each other.
        Be not an hypocrite in the sight of men, and take good heed what thou speakest. Exalt not thyself, lest thou fall, and bring dishonour upon thy soul, and so God discover thy secrets, and cast thee down in the midst of the congregation, because thou camest not in truth to the fear of the Lord, but thy heart is full of deceit.?

        Ecclesiasticus 1:29-30
