> Has anyone noticed the tension that has been storing up in the message forum? Lately there have been several debates coming close to real arguments in the forum. Debates are good, debates are fun, hopefully we dont get into any wars though:)

Interesting that you think so. I've been reading all the posts in the "racism" debate but I haven't spotted much genuine tension there. One thing we seem to be good at here is expressing differing opinions without descending to abuse and personal attacks. We have been getting some good debate, though, with a lot of thoughtful commentary (I'm thinking of the "No TV" thread in particular).

As those involved in the Creation/Evolution thread will recall, there's always a solution to debates that turn into pointless and endless circular argument. It's called Sam. :-)
