I'm always fascinated when people decide to have an opinion on facts. That little spark gets fanned into the flames of religion so easily, and it's no exaggeration to say it is a primary driver in the shape of our civilization.
- sidlls 10y agoI'm almost never fascinated when folks mistake opinion for fact. It's the primary driver in many language wars, as I see it. Some come to recognize that no language is perfect, especially their favored one. Others don't.
- oldmanjay 10y agoLanguage wars are just another religion, so I agree. The real tragedy of being human is that no amount of intelligence can save you from being religious.
