I'm kind of mean, though. I argue with people over things like this becuase I get a sort of a high knowing that I'm dealing with an ignoramus. It feels good to know I'm better than some people, and seeing these threads is further proof. I'm kind of mean, but at least I'm not trying to convince the world that being gay is a choice or peddling some other nonsense that is completely contradicted by science.
You're cool, though. I like you. in fact I like most people on here, just not the ones that use religion as a basis for an argument and demand I take them seriously.

This arrogant mentality is the prime reason why nobody ever changes their mind when debating. People are more open to agreeing with someone who is humble & respectful rather than someone who has already set his mind that he's the 'superior' man. And it's especially bad when not just one, but both debaters are like you. In these situations, you won't get anything close to a discussion or civilised debate. Just two people driven to 'win' the debate by any means necessary.

Yeah, but there's a difference between, say, hating or not hating Final Fantasy XIII and being plain wrong about something that has scientific proof.
Like I said before, if it was something as simple as a difference of valid opinions, I really don't care and I do respect people who have different opinions, but there is such a thing as being wrong. I only feel superior when someone tries to argue stupidly.
And when people say they like FInal Fantasy XIII, that game sucks, there's no debating that :P (Just to clarify for those who will inevitably report me, that last comment was facetious)

I'm not just talking about Final Fantasy or just your posts in this thread. I'm talking about virtually every single post I've seen from you. You're posts reek off arrogance & condescension. It's like you feel like you're forcing youself to communicate with a lesser species or something. No one wants to talk to someone like that.

Then don't. I don't want to talk to people who refuse to accept science as truth. Far as I'm concerned, anyone who thinks being gay is a choice, black people are inferior, that jews are the devil, or any other sexist, racist thing (especially those who use the bible as a REASON to feel that way) ARE lesser than I am; they are barbarians, uncivilized whelps who deserve no respect or acceptance.
I am incredibly easy to get along with, provided the people I'm talking to are reasonable, intelligent people. Ignorance and intolerance get only disdain and hatred from me. am I perfect? hell no, but I'm sure as shootin better than racist, sexist pigs.
And people who like Final Fantasy XIII, those blokes have no taste in quality games!
