Heated Debates
 

What are some issues that commonly lead to a conversation getting heated? And maybe sometimes the moving of furniture?

Abortion

Gay Marriage

Matters of Race

Threads the Apparently Have No Point

Threads Started By the Same Person that are Similar

Thread Started by the Same Person 5 Seconds Apart

The old triumvirate of sex/politics/religion?

anything and everything that doesn't agree with the views rudey shares

Someone claims that certain disorders or conditions doesn't exist.

Someone denies a problem that needs to be addressed.

Certain matters of race.

Harsh sarcasm.

Strongly held opinions and an inability to discuss them civilly.

Of course, there is always a time and place where harsh sarcasm, derisive comments (in my opinion) are necessary. Those times are rare though.

Like anything else, it can get out of hand...but debate is a good thing.
