I don't really " like " arguing; it's just that there isn't really anything I

don't have an opinion about.

I would also prefer not to discuss religion here, it's just that it is so

tempting, when I have an opinion, and someone expresses a contrary one, not to

share mine. Usually I'd rather not, because it's easy to come off as

" adversarial " when debating something, when I'd rather be friendly.

The only thing that frustrated me about the discussion with you was that I

perceived you as continually shifting your argument, and using things out of

context, but I certainly have absolutely no hard feelings about it.

Oh my gosh that made me chuckle. I know the feeling. I don't have time to read

87 messages. So by the time I delete the rest I do feel much better.

Such provisions certainly aren't needed. One would as well worry

about keeping bad bacteria out of their kefir!
