Why are you so aggressive about imposing your belief system on others that you demand that they agree to yours -- at least theoretically -- before *having* the discussion? It seems to me that the only reason you'd want to do that is because you want to "prove yourself right." I don't have any such need with my beliefs. I don't think Curtis does either. Why do you?
