Makes an analytical and unbiased approach to understanding impossible.

I can only guess if this is the type of responses this topic raises, there must be to something to the points being made and being objected to.
Exactly, it's like discussing religion with 'true believers'...they are so weak in their faith that any objective discussion that questions their beliefs scares the crap out of them and drives them to rave like lunatics in an attempt to protect their perception of moral superiority.

Of course my enjoyment of driving them to even greater heights of lunacy probably doesn't help either.
