@mecha82 I’m not speaking for everyone and nor is anyone else, I would be interested to hear why you think that is the case.

Nobody’s opinions are being dismissed, they’re being disagreed with and reasons for those disagreements have been given. I do not feel like any of my opinions have been dismissed nor have I claimed this is the case. I have been disagreed with but I am OK with that – it’s part and parcel of being in a discussion. Similarly, your opinion isn’t being dismissed either, it’s just being disagreed. We have to remember not everyone shares yours and if we choose to express ours publicly then we must also expect to have it disagreed with publicly. There’s only one instance I can think of where I have openly said someone is wrong and that is the assertion that this discussion has been three pages of off topic nonsense, which it has not and I provided an explanation as to why that is the case.

Finally, nobody has been pushing their opinions on anyone, they have only been expressing their opinions, some of which don’t align. I don’t think anyone here has demanded that anyone else change their opinions and conform to thier way of thinking.

Maybe we all just need to calm down a little and just accept that it’s a divisive subject and people have very different opinions on it before we start claiming to have had our opinions dismissed.
