How about if I don't?
As I already stated, anyone who thinks that there is actual "debate" on an internet discussion board is fooling themselves. Anyone who thinks that exchanging thoughts on an internet board is something that they can "win" is extremely delusional.
I am addressing my responses to everyone, not just you. I am not "debating" with you. I am not "debating" with anyone. Properly speaking a "Debate" requires a formal agreement and rules. But it figures that you would think that discussing something online is automatically some kind of "debate" where you can "win."
I have some bad news for you:
Why do you even post then? It seems sort of strange that a person would spend so much time creating such detailed posts and even dig up off site links if he didn't think it meant anything.
You post even though you feel it is meaningless? Do you need more things to fill out your day?
BTW, that is a very cruel image that you posted. I know you didn't originate it but I would hope that freepers, especially those who claim to have high morals, would show more class than that.
The special olympics means the world to those kids. Have we fallen that low that we need to start ridiculing the retarded?
Then there is no reason for your to participate in this thread, unless you're simply trolling for flames

An assertion that is proven to be invalid on this and many other similar boards. Do you have anything of substance to contribute at all?

Another assertion that is not substantiated, you're on a roll.

Cute little poster. Get it from a family photo album? And just what does this contribute aside from ad hom name calling? This is usually the tactic of someone who was unprepared to enter discussion on an issue.
If you can't handle the discussion and yes, debate you can always post to the Hobbit Hole, or the Poetry forum.*
