At the risk of accusations of continuing it, I would just like to mention that what you feel you have to say isn't half as important as the way you choose to say it. It is possible, for example, to tell someone that they're being a cunt without once using the word "cunt". Aim to disagree without being disagreeable - at least at first; that way you still leave yourself the escalation option for later.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
