And anyway, you don't come into a community that is working based on certain shared assumptions, and start questioning the assumptions. The conversation begins with some premises. It doesn't start at zero, in every post. You're supposed to work "on topic".
Like, you don't go into a bible meeting and start questioning whether Jesus really rose from the dead. We know those are Christians, and you're never going to change their minds. You're only allowed to discuss whether suicide bombers are sinners. Stuff like that. Todd
