For me, the most exciting part of a debate is when someone presents something, either a morsel of knowledge or a thought, that I haven't heard before. At this point I must ask "Does this change my opinion"? If yes, I win. That was the goal in the first place. If no, I learned something anyway. I win again.
My goal isn't necessarily changing my opinion....but rather to maybe learn a few things I didn't know before. Whether it changes my opinion, or solidifies my current one I'm still a winner. [and I'm guessing that's what you were saying all along...hahaha]

Sooo, now that we've changed this debate thread into a thread about debating.....I think we should get back to the debate!!

Now....where were we?
