I'm referring to people who do as you have done here (others do it too) and instead of simply saying - eg 'I think you are talking bunk' go on and on ad infinitum to get someone to respond in a way they feel satisfied with.

Sometimes we may have to sigh and walk away - doesn't mean you have to accept the other view just be resigned about it.

"face up to conflict"
But to me you seem more than keen to CAUSE it rather than face up to it.

Divebuddy, invincible ignorance can be argued against, but never conquered. There's a clue in the name. According to our RC friends the sin (invincible ignorance, I mean) is venial, not mortal.

Maybe there's a sanitarium where Jack Nicholson and Louise Fletcher are on the same side.

"letting things go is simply letting the imbeciles run the sanatorium".

...and there it is again: it all boils down to your own personal notion of IQ level.

divebuddy - //V_E. Sometimes I think (as Mamy seems to suggest is the right thing to do) that letting things go is simply letting the imbeciles run the sanatorium. //

I prefer to think that sometimes you simply cannot make your point understood, so the sensible option is just to walk away.

I don't think it leaves anybody 'running' anything.

As divebuddy's fingers crash down on his keyboard I'm surprised even the buttons don't flee in all directions in sheer terror.
