"Dogma R Us" Actually I used to get really involved in these type of arguments years ago…..I actually think I made Nixon's "Enemy's List"….Something to do with Certified Letters to the White House and War & TaxProtests….Bunch of Baby's <g>. Anyway I had a Professor at U.W. that would tell us we didn't have to come to class for 3 weeks but our entire grade would hinge upon his impression of how we debated subjects we picked from a hat. You know the drill "Death Penalty" Etc. type of topics….One little hitch…we wouldn't know which side of the argument we had to successfully argue until we walked in to his class 3 weeks later….Heh…Heh Kind of does a number on your preconceived notions. Ever since then I could take either side of an argument and most of the time win the argument…even if I didn't originally beleive what I was defending. So much we take as true or false or right or wrong is really a personal Value Judgement and has little to do with reality in many cases <g>. I do love to get in to it now and then though……Heh…Heh… I've got both Liberal and Conservative Freinds and have actually been able to stand between Em' and listen to Em' Argue while they both were sure my comments support their particular arguments…pretty strange stuff!<g> Murph'
