Maybe they don't have the stamina? I can keep up discussions or arguments for months, even years. Sometimes without stopping.

Still, I'd guess Ustwo is older than I am and he chimes in.

Hey..."youngster", I'll put my stamina up against yours...any day.

As far as the "great debate"...I just see no point. I really have no banner to bear, nor do I have a desire to convert. So, why bother? I'd rather eat cookies.

Yeah, it's probably a stamina thing. When i get tired of a discussion i just need, like, 24 hours off and i'm good as new. It probably gets harder when you're older. Nobody wants to give bill a heart attack.

*hopes bill hasn't had and won't have a heart attack*

I like to be right. If I'm wrong about something, I'd like to know it. I suspect others are like me in that respect. It's about learning and teaching. Discovering and being discovered. Good times, AND cookies. Can't beat that.

It took me 3 years to get tired of the 9/11 thread, btw.

I'm just starting on part 2, and I can already tell you this is the best Dawkins debate I've yet herd. Very interesting stuff.
