That's good advice...

The thought that two people of similar intellect and upbringing could hold the exact opposite and unyielding opinion about every subject amazes me.

If I were to give advice, which I suppose I am doing right now, I would say this:

Don't debate to understand your opposition, debate to understand why you oppose them.
Excellent, and again welcome back

Welcome back to the threads. Your advice is well recieve and makes sense. I feel I have a fairly good understanding on why I oppose people when I debate the issues. What next?
Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong. ~Richard Armour
