The problem there is that people DO NOT ignore the (largely) unfounded oppositionand unfortunately the opposition are capable of making persuading arguments to people who cannot understand the facts for themselves, or for some reason, including laziness, refuse to find out the learned opinion on the matter. What's worse is, there is an awful lot of these thick/lazy people.

This is why I argue.I have no wish to upset people or fall out with them I just have an innate need to challenge people when they use sweeping generalisation and misinformation to back up their claims. I just want to say "let's look at what you are saying and then let us look at what we actually know on the subject as opposed to what we would like to believe".
I think that's fair and I often enjoy the debate. It's a shame some people see it as some kind of attack when it never is.
