We absolutely need to find a way to establish dialogue between competing groups. These debates are a way to display the Truth of your position against the Truth of your detractor. Spectators would judge who's Truth was stronger (greater), and would appoint them as the winner. The winner would establish what Truth was until a stronger Truth came along and retired him.....This is how progress works or should work and how groups make life and death decisions successfully. When this process breaks down, as it has in the USA, then destruction and elimination are in our near future. (The Universe in its infinite wisdom knows what things are true and what are false, it is a Science. Our bodies which are directly connected to our heart mind, can determine the strength (truth) of a statement or idea, and cannot be fooled by anyone or anything.)
