Yeah, that's what I meant to say actually. I was saying you "expect" us to agree with your opinions in the sense that you would like for this to happen, or you want this to happen, and similarly you just said that it is great when it happens. But, I don't mean to say that this is a bad thing at all. Everyone does this. Afterall, that is basically the purpose of debates, i.e. to tell someone why they are wrong and try to make them agree with you. Having said that, yes, I know that you don't really care either way as long as a theist is not openly trying to convert you or preaching to you. So, I respect that also.
