We DO have a forum for those of us who LIKE to argue, within reason. It's called the "Politics and Religion" forum. It does have it's own code of ethics to abide by, and most do, except during elections.

They could all gather in one place and beat-up on each other all day long... while the rest of us just try to learn and grow together the best way we know how.

As an aside- I checked out the Marathon Bike link under your signature. I saw that there were to be 3 rides, but nowhere did I see how far the rides were.
