Why are you trying to teach pigs to sing?

Because I want to understand what conservative/right wing people believe, and why they believe it.

I have no illusions about being able to change someone's mind on the internet. It almost never happens. I'm not engaging in these discussions because I imagine that I will write something on a message board that will cause someone who fervently believes in something to change their mind about it.

I do it because it helps me get a better understanding of what someone who has that mindset believes, and how they respond to the counterarguments.
