Bels is a model poster, certainly. Mega-informative and I have never heard him call anyone a name.
I'm not sure what you mean by "move one." Sometimes there is no resolution to an argument. Then moving on would be good. But sometimes someone just wants to explain his position in more detail. Nothing wrong with that. Sometimes as people exchange information, a discussion can evolve and change "organically." It doesn't have to be just a tally of positions stated once and then accepted or not.
I am referring to the Mortal Kombat attitude of needing to finish someone in a discussion.
The reality is that rarely is anyone going to be swayed. We are going to believe what is common in our own areas in our own groups. And that's fine.
