I assure you they are there for a reason.

As far as I know, there is no rational discussion between humans, this
is naïve wishful thinking.  This discussion has been _highly_ emotional
from the beginning, and not because of me.  It had been based on
feelings to a large extent.  Just not explicitly.

As far as I know, hiding feelings behind arguments leads to more
subliminal aggression, leads to women staying out of the discussion (has
anyone ever wondered why nearly no women are present here?) and lets
discussions escalate more quickly, as we already have seen in this
thread.

Please don't misunderstood: of course should any discussion revolve
around arguments and ideas.  But we are humans and also have to deal
with that aspect.  So far, we haven't dealt with it in an optimal way,
in my opinion.


Michael.
