    The flowchart inside presents a pretty excellent strategy for having a reasonable, rational discussion (instead of one party ‘lecturing’ or ‘giving a sermon’ to the other).

      If people followed those rules 99.9% of your posts would be obsolete.

        That'll work fine up until two people disagree over the definitions of rationality, logic, evidence, etc.

              That's quite a confession to make after 30,929 posts

              On topic: I'd like it but there's no role for a moderator there, just the posters themselves. Abuse at posters could use more moderation though. This forum is deteriorating into an insult slinging fest .

                The majority of my posts are in the on topic forums... where actual discussion occurs (well, most of the time )

                      I noticed at the bottom of the linked site, there was a link to a site titled, "The problem with *** hags and gay men."
