I’ll look that up. I went off on a different tangent, I was talking about what seems to be the degeneration of the quality and robustness of debate in universities over there, there’s been a lot in the press about ‘trigger words’ and students getting pretty hysterical about people having views that challenge for example the whole transgender ‘agenda’ and so on. I don’t really have a rounded understanding of what is going on but it seems to be similar to what is happening in parts of Europe, a kind of indoctrination that sets up harsh penalties for students who disagree with the liberal/just be nice rather than truthful movement.
The last debate I watched was held at a Church, and featured three Christians and three atheist/agnostics. I only watched about half of it, because I've watched so many debates, none of the material is really new from either side, and the atheist/agnostics in the audience could not be quiet and peaceful turned me off. It would not be the first debate I have watched where certain people in the audience get so hysterical they cannot contain themselves in a civil manner. After watching, I look at the comments pertaining to the debate and they mostly consist of insult after insult directed at the Christians. Even the comments from Christians, could do little more than falsely criticize the Christian debaters for what they considered less than perfect Christian behavior. If you're interested in seeing hysterical, watch the abortion clinic videos on youtube put up by Apologia Ministries. The harshness, isn't coming from folks in their ministry, and at times the hysteria involves more than just words. I see harshness coming soon in the direction for any Christian speaking the truth in love especially where they go against the grain of pop culture.
