One thing that I appreciate in an opposing argument is the willingness of the arguee to respect me and want to sway me instead of telling me how wrong I am.
Thanks. Yes, I think respect for non-crazy opposing views is essential. As a practical matter, this is even more true when the opposing views are a majority view, and the view you are advancing is a minority one.
We're doing the Polar Plunge this afternoon. I should already be drinking.
