I bet they picked that scenario just because it's something that gets a lot of peoples' hackles up, no matter what side of the debate they are on. - Roger More Nov 1, 12:04 16
- Plus they are targeting the education market. -- nm - ceregon Nov 1, 12:06
- Sure, sure, and they're next consensus building exercise should have dealt with abortion... -- nm - Stephen Nov 1, 12:04 14
  - You're right, They should have picked a consensus building exercise that didn't have any contention. - Roger More Nov 1, 12:13 6
    - Or more accurately, pick one where there is an actual possibility of consensus... - Stephen Nov 1, 12:18 5
      - Building a consensus is about getting people with opposing views to talk and agree on how they can work with one another and solve mutual problems. - Roger More Nov 1, 12:25 4
        
        And picking an scenario like this is a good test of whether someone is prepared to put their own personal feelings aside. If you're unable to do that - Roger More Nov 1, 12:28 3
        
        So, that would apply to the evolutionists too? - Stephen Nov 1, 12:33 2
        
        To the candidates, yes. And it's important to remember that everything we're going on is hearsay -- nm - Roger More Nov 1, 12:36 1
        
        So once you're hired consensus building isn't important? - Stephen Nov 1, 12:46
  - Where's the science merit in abortion? - Will Hunting Nov 1, 12:08 4
    - This was for a start up and not the college where I work. - ceregon Nov 1, 12:15 2
      - Oh, ok, I didn't miss that then...that makes it worse, imo. -- nm - Stephen Nov 1, 12:19
      - Oh jeez....never mind. - Will Hunting Nov 1, 12:16
    - The point at which life begins. - Stephen Nov 1, 12:15
  - that would be ill-advised, obviously. Evolution versus Creationism is the kind of divide that hurts few ... -- nm - Beryllium Nov 1, 12:06
  - they're = their, of course. -- nm - Stephen Nov 1, 12:05
