I don't think there is much that is bad in itself either... But sometimes the consequences are fairly predictable I suppose... Then it is probably wise to avoid the whole scenario...
> > Is it better to avoid controversy???
> I don't know, maybe for some people avoiding controversy is the best thing to do.Yeah. Maybe in some settings.
But it is my option...
I guess I know that that setting doesn't like it.
Doesn't want it.
Thats ok.
I don't have to go there.>I myself actually like controversy...it is thought provoking...lets me see other's views more clearly. I know there are certain controversies that can never be resolved...I'm ok with that.
:-)
Yeah. Me too I guess.
> I respect all views...even those that are very different from mine. Also, I can never hold a grudge against anyone for any length of time.Yeah.
Thanks.
I think I'm seeing the situation a little more clearly now...I am who I am.
Thank you.
