Neenny,

Hello, my least favorite line ever in an argument is "can we at least agree to disagree??"

I would have to say...... HELL NO, YOU NEED TO AGREE TO CHANGE YOUR OPINION!!


I'll bet that is the reason most people cannot have an intelligent argument/discussion.

IMHO, an argument is a chance to express your opinion, not a chance to change another's opinion. If you are good enough at expressing your opinion, your opponent may change her/his opinion, but that should not be the goal.

The goal should be to make your opponent understand your opinion, whether or not they agree with it.

Have fun,
Phil
