I would tend to agree with this, except I refuse to treat every conversation like a formal debate. I am an emotive person. I like to use words which express that. If every conversation on this board was just automatons riffing exposition at each other, I don't think I'd stay.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
