Go ahead and read the first page of this topic. Disregard anything you may read on this portion of it. Trust me, there is nothing interesting here.

Just adding some general guidelines as well to Ziroc's post.
I may not agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

This is the cornerstone around which the concept of freedom of speech is built, as long as it is done with respect for others.

Debating is not about winning or losing, it's about expressing a point of view and listening to another person expressing theirs. There is no shame in agreeing to disagree when the argument starts to go nowhere.

Don't take things personally. Life's too short to get upset about another person's point of view.

I know most of you love a good spirited debate, since most of you are quite strongly opinionated, if somewhat tactless about expressing opinions, serenely confident in your righteousness and in the other's wrongness. This is not a problem unless you start making snide remarks about each other which don't have anything to do with the topic at hand, as this usually leads to shouting profanities at each other, which then becomes a problem. However, I'm sure will not happen, given that we're all VERY good at exercising self-control, right?

Just remember that two of the most difficult things to do on the internet are: 1) admit that you can't change the other person's point of view; and 2) accept that failing to change the other person's point of view does NOT mean you have lost the argument.

Ah, but that would make me seem to have a sad life. We can't have that now, can we? I wouldn't want to aspire to heights that so many others take for granted.

Do I have a sad life or just a sad outlook on life? Talk amongst yourselves.

We each have a role to play in this life. I was born to bump that which I find interesting. I am entirely too sober to jump into the conversations going on at present. But there is hope.
