Your last comments are quite enlightening actually. Thanks,

Okay, I can see how it may appear that way but honestly I don't think it happens as often as you may think.

For instance, propheticjoe has had disagreements with me and so has dickson. For the most part, these disagreements are worked out and everyone walks away either agreeing to disagree or changing their position due to well thought out respectful points from the person they initially had the disagreement with. This has happened with me and Nate (propheticjoe) on at least two or three occasions that I can recall and I think the world of him and highly respect him when he posts something that "calls me out" or whatever you want to call it. Same with Dickson, we may disagree and there are times when he and I say to each other "Oh yeah, I see your point!" and all is well.

There have been MANY other people that have had differences with others and can tell you the same types of stories.

It's all in how you present it. Yep, sometimes my "style" ain't the prettiest but that's just me....
