It is true, though, isn't it? 19 year olds are pretty green behind the ears....
Mr. Cox, you need to forget what you've been told and just get to know the PEOPLE who post on this forum. Many are conservative--probably more conservative than you--and you would be surprised to know which ones they are. Almost ALL are God-loving Christians, who love the Word and serve Him to the best of their knowledge and ability. THAT should be respected, even when we don't agree on the details.
My father was a conservative Apostolic, and he discussed, debated and argued with his minister friends more times than I could ever count--and they were still friends at the end of the day. Discussion doesn't always reveal a person's viewpoint, either--I've played the devil's advocate a few times just to make a point or to push the parameters a bit.
Usually people fear discussion when they're afraid they might be wrong.
