I think everybody wants to feel some sense of community...
i guess this is a natural human necessity
everybody wants this and therefore everybody is working hard to be part of such a community!
but being part of such a community shouldn.t mean to profile oneself - i don.t mean that you are doing this! - it is as you mentioned to debate, to interact, to realize the mutuality, about the differences, and to learn!
learn to listen and to form thoughts and opinions – but when learning 1st thing i found out is no opinion could be the ultimate truth!
this can be wonderfully detected on ATS
As for the ""You don't have to justify your self posts''
Thankyou for those too....but as you can see..this is a site for debate(i know that)
What would be the point of not debating?
Sure some peoples opinions do stick in my craw...
But you have to review them so you can review yourself...
I think that is the point of a debate right?
totally agreed!
while debating i am expressing myself, and this expressing helps to find out what is really on my mind
to reclassify what i experienced, what i saw, what i have learnt
but when debating it doesn.t count what kind of person we are
neither the color of skin, nor the profession or anything else!
only our thoughts and way of communicating are important!
but nevertheless selfreflection ain.t very popular these days.
so thank you sir, for this objection
so lets look forward to fruitful debates - as it used to be on the fora of ancient rome, where people debated on marketplaces

Oh and it's a cool song, by the way.
