I had some opinions changed today following a lengthy discussion with someone about a controversial subject.

It's amazing what can happen when you don't assume someone who believes different things to you is an evil piece of shit.

Maybe there's hope for the world after all!

Indeed. What was the topic?

I don't want to say - it would distract from the more important point about how we communicate.

Just imagine the list of things you've seen flame wars about recently. It's one of those.
