Thanks for that......
The value for me in being able to debate about Great Beings is that I don't feel so much anger as before. So there has been therapeutic benefit.......
I wandered the extreme Christian websites for several months (punishment?) and the result was a much better grasp of Mosiac and Christian guides and laws, because the only way to survive on such websites is to only quote the bible, thus requiring, and leading to better education.
It's not for me to propose values for you, to you, but I'm prepared to bet (Oops!) that the next time you stand on any platform at any public meeting, that you'll be much more prepared, practiced, sharp, refined and fast at offering answers to questions, attitudes and heckles.
You're making us all better human beings.
