You don't have to be respectful, just enough so you aren't banned. Just be prepared to be called on it when you make personal attacks over substance. Okay, go be right then.

If you two sat down at Sushi Amai over a plate of hamachi & several cups of hot sake, you'd be friends ere long.

I hate hot sake, I'd stick with a diet Coke. Also, depending on if the sushi was kosher.

Hey! That's an idea for a business! Want to go into business? A kosher sushi restaurant! No clam or uni or abalone or chicken/steak teriyaki, but all the scaly fish is OK. Of course, we'd need to keep a kosher kitchen in back. What an idea!

I get these great ideas all the time, but never follow through on them.

I just had this discussion with a fellow Jewish co-worker who likes sushi. They have these kinds of restaurants all over New York.

Listen AJ, There are a lot of people banned from here that didn't go as far as you did sometimes. The banningpolicy over here is impossible to follow, so I don't know what can be said or not. If you want me banned, go ahead. I'm respectful. Just not towards disrespectful people, and towards inconsistant moralism.

Thanks Viv! I don't want anyone banned. I like to argue. I actually started a theology group once where anything goes because too many people were getting banned on other sites. Full contact theology, yes!

I can kind of understand it though. If someone walked up to you in America and started speaking french or german or whatever and expected you to be able to respond you'd find them arrogant. It's only us that expect other cultures to speak english even just by saying "do you speak english?". If you reverse that into another language in your country it would get a really strange response.

I wouldn't think they were arrogant, I would assume they didn't speak English and attempt to find someone who spoke French and gesture at them in such a way to let them know that I don't understand them.
