that nobody who has yet contributed has liked red apples most, or that they had forgotten about red apples.
Written by: someone that doesn't think in the same way as you do
that green apples are undesirable/not liked.
if the thread is about all the apples that are beautiful, and green apples are beautiful, why would they not have been mentioned at all, by anyone?
ah, maybe because they 'forgot about red apples' you say - well 'forgetting' about them isn't something you would do if you truly thought they were beautiful is it?
and if you can't be bothered to post about them then either you don't really care about apples or that green apples are not so beautiful that they make you want to mention them as red apples obviously do.

Then again, leaving out key portions of the story on PURPOSE is misleading.
But asking clarifying questions hopefully eliminates the need to get pencil and paper to suss out the logic problems.

if we are in a discussion and you would like to argue against just a small part of what i am saying, you should be very certain that what you are arguing against was not just implied by the author (or presupposed by you) but was actually stated.
...
if you are going to argue against something, go back and quote the exact statement you are arguing against and if it does not appear exactly as it does in your head, ask for clarification before going on to offer counter opinions.

As long as people can see where they are/were intentionally or unintentionally misleading or being mislead, or are open to being shown where this is the case, then things should flow smoothly enough. However not everyone is going to be able to, and it can merely be encouraged by threads such as these.

It simply has to do with people being unable to accept when they may (intentionally or unintentionally) have been ambiguous or misinterpreted something. And that's just rationality and character. Methinks.

I would also like to add that I think sometimes people takes posts as being a personal attack against them...i.e. person B replies to something person A said. Person B just meant it as a comment or addition to the discussion, but person A took the post as a personnal attack on them.

Is it Fair to all concerned?

Will it be Beneficial to all concerned?

I may disagree with what you have to say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

Actually Cole, I think sometimes I feel underminded by having my logic critiqued rather than my point.
