Duane, you have just perfectly illustrated why this isn't a problem. We need not fear and in fact should welcome all opposing viewpoints no matter how bereft of facts, logic or cordiality they might be. While, for the most part, the other side prefers to shut the opposition out of the debate and to just continue parroting the same failed ideas to an already converted congregation, we allow them to engage us and to test us. This continually distills and refines our ideas and provides constant public evidence of our integrity. It also maintains bridges into the opposing camp over which converts might cross.
