Well, it is my opinion that your are being "silly" if you think that people should be subjected to your or the other poster's unwanted religious or political debates/rants at the breakfast table.
The "on Pubic land" arguement? That is beyond silliness and just downright stupid, Weary. You are being inconsiderate of others and rude if you continue the discuussion at the breakfast table after being asked to stop.
Just to be clear... we are not talking about campfire or on the trail discussions.
Save it for a more appropriate setting.
