It's interesting how the second group supports each other and tries to form a alliance, while the first group is mostly observing details and pointing out illogical, unreasonable and contradictary statements made here or in public. When the 2nd group sees someone making a statement in conjunction with thier prejudices, they don't waste time in WAH WAH's, but as soon as they find out that someone's views are contrary to theirs, they form a multi pronged attacks. They start calling names and even make ill reference to a posters PARENTS when they feel they cannot sustain a reasonable debate. These people, since they are prejudiced to their bones think everyone else would be prejudiced to their bones as well. That is why, they catagorize anyone not of their prejudiced mentality as being oppositely prejudiced - whereas the sad fact is that they are just closed minded to recognize any open minded thinking. The 1st group does not believe in forming alliance since they are only observing inconsistencies and mostly post things that they deem are inconsistent with logical and reasonable common understanding. They believe that it is limiting one's horizon to have a closed mind and will not be shut by the attacks of the closed minded. The closed minded however fail to open at the urgings of the open minded. The battle of the OPEN and CLOSED minded people continues...
