I'm not saying Aasimars are a poor choice by any stretch - I have an Aasimar Sorcerer and he rocks, and have used one as a Fighter/Paladin as well. The +4 bonus to ability points for just -1 ECL is pretty nice, and they are cool from a RP point of view too (not to mention getting the element resistances and darkvision).

I think the debate began when it was suggested a Human would "stink up the room" compared to an Aasimar, which just isn't true; and also about the merits of a Paladin/Monk build. I don't think those are defensible positions and they have nothing to do with roleplaying. Humans IMHO are a very strong race.
