I do like nearly all the ones posted, but this one: "<i>At least think about the arguments the side you are opposing has.</i>" It's nearly always stated by a person who has already rejected your views and is passive aggressively demanding that you still accept theirs. You can think about their arguments, dismiss them for a plethora of considered reasons; and they will then come back with, "you're not open minded" without acknowledging any of your reasoned arguments. When someone makes that argument; I consider the discussion closed, like their mind.Lelandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531159384688653131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-72039576715913936572016-08-28T12:31:33.418-04:002016-08-28T12:31:33.418-04:00Sane is relative.
