I notice the most heated thread around here revolved around perceived absolutist statements or positions. It may not have been intended to be perceived absolutist by the writer, or it may have been intended to be perceived that way by the writer. Either way, any absolutist viewpoint is going to attract a vigorous response. The best I can perceive reality is that there is very few things that one can speak of in absolutist terms and feel that it will not draw an opposing response. Reality is far too complex and contradictory to be able to state anything with absolute certainity. In addition, making an absolutist statement implies that the person stating it is not interested in discussion, but dominance. People who discuss things on the internet tend to be a rather libertarian bunch, and do not take well to dominace attitudes. So I see it. - RSE
