Why does anything? More specifically, why does Rants exist? Of course it sounds like it would work in theory, but nearly every thread just boils down to a competition to see who is the most intellectually superior by using piss-poor arguments with either big words sprinkled on top of them or a smug sense of unfounded certainty derived from closed-mindedness (aka "commonsense"). I mean come on, almost every debate I've gotten into here was just another easy bullfight. And this here, gentlemen, is the answer I hoped to receive.
