Why is it that people cant argue in a logical manner.
Too many threads have this scenario..
person A says country A/Relgion X has this issue.
Person B says oh yeah well country B/ Religion Y has this issue..look at your own house first.
Person A says, dont skirt the issue, btw your Country A/ Religion X has this issue as well
Person B says, you are an idiot and could not answer my question.
Person A says, no you are a moron since you did not answer my question and brought up a different topic.
Meanwhile all the other “contributors” to the discussion are butting heads on other tangents
Admittedly, some of these posts from the get go are written in a way to offend people or annoy them so they retaliate, and often posts that may be well intentioned to begin with get destroyed due to the type of responses generated.
While I understand that some topics are hard to discuss on their own and comparisons need to be brought up, in most cases it does not hold true.
If you ask why I prefer Oranges, I should address that rather than questioning you on why you like apples
I wish we could come to some consensus about some real issues or at least a format for discussion.
We should always look at what has been said and answer that rather than who said it and start bashing him.
If you ask why I prefer Oranges, I should address that rather than questioning you on why you like apples <
you are right, if someone asks why you prefer oranges in a decent manner, and hasnt already made up his mind regarding why you eat oranges, its okay.
but what if the post goes like

Pir Frauds eats oranges, bah! lousy, stinky oranges! Pirji, why does thou eat that yuck fruit? i bet it is the (religionA) blood in your veins, what stupid people you are.. i am glad i am of (religionB). we dont eat believe in primitive deeds like eating oranges..
[/quote]
it is obvious that the person's intention isnt a discussion on why Pirji eats oranges, but to poke fun at his affiliations. and believe me, if you had seen the recent events in the religious section that precipitated the hooker stuff, you'd have no problem in seeing that the post in here was a stinker orange..
As an ardent Gupshut sponsor, I'm injured to see these kind of sentiments. I mean we're even doing advertising and a fresh poll for you guys on our front page.
injured & saddened,
Dev.
ps: I'm going home !!!

maafi chahta hoon dev sahab. aap kay 6 kay 6 members nay barri mehnat ki hai is naye shumaray parr.
6 logon kay liye poll? hmmm waisay hi pooch laitay. Challo koi baat naheen, sab kay weekends parr time paas ho gaya ho ga acchi tarah shumara likhtay huay.
baal ki khaal utaranay ki zaroorat naheen hai. hum phadday baaz qaum hain aur phadday baaz discussion karain gay. Hum koi tibet kay monks hain jo aram sakoon say baat cheet karain?
mohtarma naheen, mohtaram.
but maybe aap mustache dekh kar confuse ho gaye. many mohtarmas in india have mustaches too..Kajol for example.
So let me clarify, even though I have a moustache.. I am a man, not a chica the types of which walk around at IIT. (btw I am just kidding about serious na hona, warna admin marain gay)
