I won't be making any direct responses to anyone because I'm not here to debate, honestly. I've definitely volunteered myself as a moderator in this, like in formal debates. Still, I see I have to clarify my actions a bit.

Basically, I'll just be asking questions to get you thinking. That's really it. You don't have to answer them. They're not mandatory. This really isn't a formal debate at all, despite my efforts to make it a bit more like it (if even just for the reason that well-maintained, formal debates hardly ever end in any resent or bitterness, which is one of my ultimate goals).

My questions may be very intense or very narrow, but again, that's just to get those gears spinning. Sure, I may seem ignorant or blind or perhaps even biased, but that's just a part of this. And if you don't like me or my questions, just ignore me.

I'm not making any true points. I'm not defending anything. I'm not arguing anything. I'm just trying to get this discussion to be more diverse and thought out, to get those corners that are hard to sweep up.

Now that that is cleared up, I'll wait a little longer before sending out the next round of questions.

Sorry for my absence guys, had a major research paper to write and am working on some essays now. This moved far ahead in my absence though 0.0

I will return to reply to Jorick and Brovo at some point. This is the busy time for my university

No one's replied to my points anymore :P

So I'm just curious as to if that means people simply agree now with what I've been saying, or if they disagree and are just deciding not to reply.
