You sure are bent on convincing people of this. I guess that based on the kind of friends you have, perhaps you believe this. I guess you aren't very persuasive when you broach the subject, if you even have the guts to. You definitely need to learn more.
There is also the gross-out factor. People don't like being on the wrong side. The more grossed out they are on their position, the more likely they won't fight very hard for their cause. Ever stop and think about that?
This ship is just too rough for you, but it isn't for me. This ship is for those who are willing to fight a tough fight. This is the ship that launched our forum in the first place. If the waters are too rough, get off. And quit trying to be a wet blanket for those who are riding it out.
