No this should not be the approach as every one has his/her own style of thinking and we should not feel bad if someone does not agree with us though discussion looks much better when there are people who agree and disagree both. :)

That is normally the intention and purpose of any discussion that are held in public, but not all take that view, with many just expecting others to agree with them unanimously!

Isn't it still better than communism regime in USSR and China when there were no discussions. And isn't it the trend of the day in our own so called LOKTANTRA today?

But you have to bear in mind that USSR no longer exists and China has also opened up quite liberally! As for our Loktantra, the less said the better, freedom of speech/discussion/expression is all upon the whims and fancy of the ones in charge, eg. Mamata Banerjee!!

China has changed the economic system but still the political system viz. one party- remains intact. Of course, there are wide discussion on all matters within the system.

True! And Yet I feel that their one-party system has worked better than our multiple partied democracy! look how much better they have advanced economically than India has managed to do so in spite of having much much more freedom than they ever had!

That is a nice way to do it but I have my doubts. There is a certain reason that would make them think deviating from the present system. The reason the site has very limited active participants for one and the other points are obvious.

Of course this was just a model meant for group discussions , but what I was implying was that there are certain etiquette to be followed on discussion forums anywhere in the world..

I Know it and you know it and there are few more who know that but I know one more thing that you cannot deny-
You had been in ROME. (you know what I mean, if no- please ask me!) :) I think you have seen me on other such places!

While in Rome do as the Romans do....lol, well, I am not sure about that, since I will try not to do as the Romans do if I am sure that they are not doing right,...I hope I am not confusing you :huh: :dry:
