I think when debate comes down to differences in ideology and idiosyncracy, it's at the end of debating because these differences are impossible to compromise (they are all legitimate). And the world is at a point that everybody can believe in everything and all these beliefs are all grounded and justificable (using the available tools and knowledge we've accumulated). To deal with the somewhat disturbing thought that the world doesn't need to be saved, I resort to the mantra that: eventually, the reason we read, the reason we write, the choice we make, everyday, is just because we feel like.
