[Artemisia] political correctness

[Stephanae Baker]

Indeed we are getting along, Lady Ysabel. Padruig requested that a  
foolish mortal propose an argument in response to his statements  
about the evils of political correctness. I obliged and shared my  
dissenting opinion. Padruig and I disagree (sort of) about what  
political correctness is. We also disagree about some finer points,  
but we are disagreeing civilly.

I enjoyed your response Padruig and even agree with some of your  
points, but I will refrain from continuing the conversation. It's  
evident that the mere possibility of conflict is making people in  
this public forum uncomfortable. Perhaps we can enjoy a friendly  
argument in person some day.

I sincerely apologize to those who were uncomfortable with my words.  
I know I enjoy a lively debate a bit too well.

May I also plead with you to consider whether a debate has actually  
descended into the realm of hostility and personal attack before  
accusing others on the list of flaming. Expressing one's opinion,  
even if it's a dissenting one, does not constitute flaming.
