Not at all - those kinds of things are very complicated and we all have differing views on them. Aysce and myself sort of disagree on that stuff and I actually think that disagreement is good. That thread is about an issue and as one of my modern teachers would say "an issue is a conflict of truths". So it's good to discuss the issue out and get a variety of views. There is no one final answer to that thread, like there would be for something like a maths question or a question about scaling.
On that issue, I have sort of a realistic mentality I suspect that you and aysce might be more idealistic.
