Nah, I already made that point once, a good while ago -- september 2003, if you still have your ICQ history from back then -- and I don't see any need to belabor it. It's between you and yourself, now.
As for keeping you honest, no one can do it but yourself, dear. Here's a general hint, though: if you're not able to provide a serious logical argument in favor of a standpoint you personally disagree with, you are probably not being logically honest. (Yes, it's difficult. Yes, I do try to do it. Yes, I can construct a logical argument that invading Irak was a good move for the US. No, it doesn't have to mean I agree with it.)
This is tangential to the article by Peter Suber that I posted about a while back. It was a good read then, and it still is.
