its just expressing your ideas on certain issues - its just expressing your ideas on certain issues with a clear understanding that you could be totally wrong, and there are probably a million people, who know more than you and who can write better. It takes an enermous amount of self-confidence when you are writing in a public forum like this, because you are making your knowlegde or limited knowledge, ignorance and lack of skills appearant, and you are making yourself open to praise and criticism. Its how it works. So when you make a stand in public, you have to be open to it all, and just take things lightly. If people agree with your position/stand, fine, if not, fine. Its not the end of the world and you cannot make everyone who reads you happy or make them understand what you have written. If you start taking things seriously, you stop writing.
