I would like to know why we can't have a forum where <i>the possibility exists</i> for us to have a conversation like this...<br />
<br />

Jerry -- wanna start one? Karen?<br />

What's the point of coming here and confusing conversation with debate, and debate for proselytizing?<br />

Clearly, this is no conversation. Can we shoot for a debate -- I mean like a real one?<br />

The picture you posted is of an ant farm. The sand, the bridge, the barn is all part of the ant farm, including the ants in the tunnels.However I am not sure I see any ideas anywhere in the picture. If anywhere they would be with the ants who are underground in the tunnels.<br />

If what you were saying is that you wouldn't want to get sucked into an airless space, I am with you. I like to breathe. If you were saying you didn't want to want to be forced to march lock-step with other ants, I also agree. But I think we owe it to ourselves to attempt to elevate our discussions and make sure that what we individually and collectively write and speak is responsible and helpful and real. Spirited respectful dialogue is part of that. You are right, hit squads are not. I never signed up to be on a death squad.

I hear you, Animal - and I like you. I always enjoy touching base with you -in fact, you're one of my favorite people to speak with in our space.<br />
<br />
When I first read your post, I took it that you were describing a Shiite Death Squad aimed at crushing alternative viewpoints on blogs. I didn't know that you meant a discussion group.<br />

<br />
What I worry about personally is avoiding getting stuck in an ant farm . . . or at that, being sucked into one. There are lots of great ideas out there, but they're not below the surface of our mini-communities. Like the picture below, they're not below the ground (in the ant farm), but rather, above the surface in the grass, in the windmill, on the bridge, and in the air. :)<br />
