Tonight I somehow got into a conversation with the girl sitting next to me regarding religion vs. atheism. (It was because I’m reading _Sea of Faith_ by Stephen O’Shea at the bar. It’s well worth looking up if you like religion and/or medival history.)

I’m not going to bother with which side each of us argued. I think I came out better, just because I was very mellow and not angry (and probably less drunk).

But throughout the entire conversation I was thinking about arguments that have happened on the board (and using some of them).

Anyone else had the same experience?
