This really is confusing and seems quite contradictive in this case. It seems to me that this agreement might be used as a means of eliminating any and all conflicting views of the populus. Is this the way it is or is it me?

I find the obsession with the specific rules to be unworthy of adult Freepers. The details of the agreement are of little importance. The spirit of the agreement is a commitment to focus on scientific issues and avoid incitement to flame wars. All you have to do to be compliant is ask yourself before posting, Am I addressing an issue or insulting a person, then edit appropriately. There are no forbidden topics, just forbidden tactics.

In my humble opinion, a lot of time is being wasted on all sides trying to decide exctly what insulting words are acceptable. My answer, which applies to myself only, is none.
