I want people to agree to disagree.
I recognize that collectively, the human race tends to act like a bunch of five-year-olds. However, individuals are often much better.
If you have views different from mine - from deeply important stuff like religious and moral matters - what I'd really like is for us to just acknowledge that we don't agree and then move on. If you'll let me get pissed sometimes, I'll let you get pissed sometimes, as long as it's ephemeral. Saying strong things is a part of the human experience, and my emotional experience has been that I retain good feeling much more permanently than bad.
