I appreciated the opportunity to see such an interesting debate and I would have missed it had I not been in time to see the posting.

I can appreciate people not wanting their words struck in stone due to the topic being somewhat controversial. But the discussion was lively and the arguments were well-formed, if we fired up a meditation with the same subject it would not be nearly as good in content.

If vroom does take off jptxs's points I shall blow 7 points, tomorrow voting for jptxs's things and to prove that I am redressing an inbalance I percieve I won't even read the postings! (at least not until afterwards).

I am certain that the points will stay as whilst this was a faux pas it is not a punishable one.

It is a shame that the post was not okayed as it was very interesting.
