That is amazingly perceptive. And beautifully said, too.
The problem is that each side believes they have a monopoly on the truth.
But if you look hard enough, you can usually find that in most disagreements, each side does indeed have a little bit of the truth by the tail. And just as in real prostitution, it's how the tail is used that determines its value.

I believe there is no good reason for venomoid surgery and that one is hurting the snake and asking for trouble by doing said surgery. My opinion is every bit a valid as yours, and by trying to control what I think, and what other people think, you are merely creating a justifiably poor rep for yourself.
A piece of advice, and it's free: Don't come out swinging and putting folks down. I mean really, if you do that, what did you expect in return?
