How to have a disagreement

Post by Sender » 31 Jan 2015, 6:00 pm

Dan: I like riding a motorcycle.

Bob: Riding a motorcycle is needlessly dangerous. You should stop.

Dan: I understand you have a different opinion but I disagree and am going to continue riding my motorcycle.

Bob: I do have a different opinion, but I realise I can't force you to accept it, so I will not try. Good day to you, sir.

Dan: And to you.

And Dan and Bob lived happily ever after instead of being idiots and having an argument in every forum topic ever from then on.

that pyramid is upside down ,,,,,and bob votes green and will try to get bikes banned ,,dan will join an outlaw bike club, deal in meth and mug bob every chance he gets...while calling him an ass hat. :thumbsup:

not everyone is the same and we should not want every one to be the same (boring world) and a bit of light banter/stirring is fine, as is a bit of baiting to get a reaction,,,,the problem arises when people think that they hold the "im right/better/more knowledge/ect/ect" card,,they may do but if you start acting all holier than thou you should not be surprised when you get pulled back down to earth :unknown: :thumbsup:

It's funny to see people trying to push their point to extremes.

If your right you know your right, you don't need to prove that to someone else.

If it can be proven by fact then they can look it up them selves.

All else is opinion and not right or wrong, just different.

I've had plenty of friend and others who absolutley have to be right, even when their wrong.

Never really understood their though processes, but usually found it lacking in logic.

Right wrong or indererent the only person I need to convince is me!

But I've got to admit, it's fun to watch/read and occasionly stir the possum. :twisted:

It's called "Cognitive Dissonance"

“Sometimes people hold a core belief that is very strong. When they are presented with evidence that works against that belief, the new evidence cannot be accepted. It would create a feeling that is extremely uncomfortable, called cognitive dissonance. And because it is so important to protect the core belief, they will rationalize, ignore and even deny anything that doesn't fit in with the core belief.”

You're assuming they'll be reasonable enough to concede that the facts could exist and look then up though.... They wont :lol:

I'm with you though, not worth your time arguing with someone who won't even hear you. Say your piece if you want and move on :thumbsup:

Thanks for that, I've heard the words but didn't associate it with the condition.

Now we have a name for it we can fund university studies,and big pharma can work up drugs to cure it, ... clinical trials sould produce a cure in about 5 years.

Total cost to the public purse aprox 1.5B dollars.
OOPS :crazy: Cognitive Consonance or just Stream of consciousness :mrgreen:

Naa I just like to rabbit on.

I couldn't have Cognitive Dissordance, I have NO core beliefs :silent:

Is this a ten minute arguement or the full half hour?

I beg to differ on a number of counts.
1. It sounds like all the political parties I know.
2. The party you are asking us to infer from your statement is simply the political face of a religion, which is populated by the same class of opportunists, psychopaths, narcissists and grifters as all the other parties with the occasional "true believer secular saint" thrown in to make the whole show look 'legit'.

A couple of points that are sort of relevant ,,,,,,

My old Dad used to say, "It's not often your right,,,,, but your wrong this time"

Old saying, > I used to be really indecisive,,,, but now I'm not so sure.

How to really upset someone, > A few years back I was in a truck stop and (jokingly) said to a guy that just pulled up in a Volvo,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

"What's it like to drive a make believe truck" ?

He did not take it as a joke,,, and got rather argumentative :thumbsdown:

I think you need to get a 338wm howa make them and you can get 1 for under 500, the pard is a great unit but don't look at the laser illuminator as it will burn your retina.

Best is to use 2205 but you can use trailboss powder as well that way you can shoot from bunnies to the biggest pig... even a buffalo

What is the world coming to, the socialists telling us how to live our lives, and how to have disagreements.. next they will tell us what to do in our own homes.

Anyway DJ, I disagree slightly. I think while they might use more soap per shower... but they are likely to have lower hygiene and thus take less showers than.

I reckon lycra clad bicycle hippies use more soap, as they probably shower 2 or 3 times a day.
