Fair enough on some of these points, but my point is that if we deter people from even seeking common ground, out of fear they might offend one another, then they're not going to make any progress.  That's just how people interact. [b] Sometimes we all step on one another's toes; [/b]it's part of learning to dance together.

We're probably not too far apart.  I doubt you, or other PPs, really want to prohibit people from talking to one another, despite some of the more extreme statements posted here.  And I'm certainly not suggesting it's OK to offend people or pry into their personal business.  There's probably some middle range that most people are comfortable with.[/quote]

It's no fun learning how to dance when I'm the one whose toes get stepped on all the time. My partner had better do a little practice before hand, or one day I'm just going to give up on him and find a new partner to dance with--one who's a little more thoughtful and done his homework before setting foot on the dance floor with me.[/quote]
