I personally enjoy interesting discussions about any subject, but then I am highly opiniated and stubborn to boot. It's just that many members speak english as a second or third language and may be offended by a remark meant to stimulate conversation and not provoke confrontation. I remember one anti-american flaming americans in general, which upset Ladyzekke. Luckily many non-americans rose to their defence but I would hate to lose any member because they were upset about someone's viewpoint. I missed your post Hellfire, but I am glad it didn't degenerate. Maybe it is a sign of the camaraderie and intellect of this board that any subject can be discussed without prejudice.
