"People disagree, and sometimes uncivilly, and sometimes they're not open to what others have to say. That doesn't make them evil because they happen to be on the other side of a particular matter."
Did you see the word or the supposition of "Evil" in any of my posts?
That is particularly the point. Walk away! Ever heard of turn the other cheek? Geez ,this is particularly the attitude that most on this thread are talking about. Why did you even respond to this? Just to get something started? Don't you have 
anything better to do? I think we all agree a little civility could do wonders around here. When in doubt just leave it alone. You don't need to respond just to up your post rate. Does everything have to be an argument? It sure as hell appears to be that way with some. I have seen threads where a group is having fun with a particular thread, and someone undoubtedly will have to take offense with us not being serious, and piss on everyone's cornflakes! Not everything is meant to be taken to heart. Try and see that yours is not the only point of view. That is all we are asking.
