[QUOTE="jwsavhGT, post: 599539, member: 652"] Unfortunately, when the tone moves away from debating politics/attacking politicians to attacking blog members then things are shut down. I would relish good debating...but if you apply the definition below, there appears to be a lack of "exchange views about" or "argue the pros and cons of". What invariably happens is sharp retorts and digs that lead some threads down a very dark hole. [I]debating (present participle)[/I] [LIST=1] [*][I]argue about (a subject), especially in a formal manner. "the board debated his proposal" · [URL='https://www.bing.com/search?q=define+discuss']discuss[/URL] · confer about · talk over · talk through · [URL='https://www.bing.com/search?q=define+talk+about']talk about[/URL] · exchange views on · exchange views about · thrash out · [URL='https://www.bing.com/search?q=define+argue']argue[/URL] · argue about · argue the pros and cons of · [more][/I] [/LIST] I appreciate the opportunity to debate with you.
