Why I Hate Debate So Much.

[KeptByTheWord]

I like to hear what other people think about a subject I am interested in, because I understand that I don't have it all figured out. You may call it insecurity, but I would chalk it up to the fact that I am simply a human trying to figure out a God so big, so wonderful, and so beyond anything we understand as humans, that there are really no words that can describe Him. So I realize that my understanding is very limited, as in looking through a glass darkly, and many, many times in debate, someone brings up a point that I had never before considered, and upon prayer, and study, have realized that God was speaking to me through this.

So, I welcome open discussion, as iron sharpeneth iron, but I do not like it when people have to resort to name calling, and degrading remarks in order to try to prove their point.

At that point in a discussion, I am done, and care to hear nothing more from the person who has resorted to such ugly measures, because their spirit is speaking louder than their words.
