They will force their opinion to you. If you disagree then they will insult you. Internet doesn't help here also. You don't really know who you're discussing with. Did that person recently lost her job. Is there somebody ill in the family. A divorce in the making. So many things you don't get also because you don't see and you don't really know the person. As soon as the words are gone you can receive a reply that you never suspected.
Thanks Dennis. I can handle it, even politics and religion. My observation is that most here can handle it, even politics and religion. I know Tuvia can too, in the end. He's keen enough. And this saturday he'll discuss this thread with his mates, I'm sure of that. Esp. the sentence that started with 'Thank G-d'. Hopefully it will be the whole sentence, not just the part he cited.
Groet,
