You said this "The purpose of this thread is to attack people with differing viewpoints."

I chose a post of yours to use because I DO agree with your viewpoint- you seem to be able to completely overlook that. It is NOT the viewpoint- it is the mode of communication that this thread is meant to take issue with (for the most part). I think this is so simple, and yet you do not appear to understand this. It is not the poster it is the post. It is not people we are attacking, it is ideas we are discussing. We do not dislike the people, but the substance or the mode of the post is what we disagree with.

Because you did not seem to understand this, I wanted to make it clear. I hate banning people when they don't understand the rules. I really don't understand your problem with this thread. If you don't like group think, you should have a problem with bigotry, it is the ultimate in groupthink.
