I'm a gentle soul, I don't like it when people are aggressive and rude lol. You can blame my mother for that.
Not sure if that's what you meant by "heated discussions" though, so I may be off base.
Same. Lol
Shit can get pretty haywire here (and I don't mean the friendly disagreement type) and I go through real chemical changes haha Real big pussy.
I had a few JWs come to my door a few weeks back, and I thought "Cool. I'm gonna quiz them and see what they know." The guy mentioned a few things and I played dumb just to see if he knew his stuff, but then the guy was so visibly shaken and stuttering about that I was suddenly thrust into his shoes. I realized that this was just some stranger who believes he needs to walk up to other stranger's houses and talk about God. So I went easy on him, like a big puss.
Either that, or he was so excited that somebody was engaging with him that he got a surge of adrenaline. Haha
Yeah, I'm always nice to people of other religions who come to my door. Even the political people who came and tried to tell me why I should vote for Obama lol.
It must be hard knocking on some stranger's door to tell them your views, so I understand getting really nervous and uncomfortable, so I always try to be as nice as possible.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
