I think most people , in the real world, are used to debating what they dont have to do is be insulted for their views. In the real world very few people are that rude and if they are you/almost everyone just ignores them. You cannot do this on a forum so it is perhaps a release from the social constraints of civility for some to just insult and continue doing so. I would assume people prefer not to be insulted than insulted and, as yunki says, this puts people off more than the fact that people hold a differeing opinion to them.
So, thank you, however unwitting you may have been in this process.
Was that a witty put down (or a diluted Fred re-sufacing), or am I too being infected with a healthy dose of paranoia?
P*E*A*C*E
Life's too short to argue, OK?

I don't come here for an argument. If someone post something which is way of what i think, i'm interested to find out how another reasonable person can be exposed to pretty much the same evidence as me and yet come to a completely different conclusion. Of course this means exploring why they think what they think. Sometimes but not often we reach the underlying principal or axiom where we diverge. Sometimes this can be addressed other times it explains why we disagree. Though there are occasions where someone will respond to this kind of enquiry in an unnecessarily rude manner, then i get drawn into trying to make them look stupid.
