Of course, debates are always welcome - especially sensible and responsible debates.Just gives me flashbacks to our old wallstrait friend who has moved on So, who determines if a debate is sensible? Still, it's interesting to see how one reacts.I like your very sensible question very much, to quote: "So, who determines if a debate is sensible?"So, how do we answer the question? And if it were up to you, how would you go about it? But before you answer the question in this thread, maybe it would make sense to start a new thread with your question as its lead-in. Closely related is what I call 'The Rules of Engagement'. What rules should people with possible differing points of view adopt when they engage in a discussion? So, once you open a new thread, I will post there my ideas. And thanks for your question. I like it.
