Cynicism deserves no reward. It's not enough to take a stand, you have to understand where everyone stands and why....I honestly was not trying to match DA's page color with my illustration's background. Just worked out that way.

Reminds me of a favorite quote from the immortal Robert Anton Wilson : The final war will be between Pavlov's dog and Schoedinger's Cat.

I disagree. The concept of taking in all points of view is often manipulated by those who have no leg to stand on in the first place.
For instance, essentially the only non-Religious argument against evolution is 'it's just one of point of view'.

It's not a matter of valuing all opinions equally -- it just helps to KNOW what those opinions are and WHY people have them.
For instance, it helps to understand why some people insist on devaluing theories of evolution, so you can argue their motives (since it is pointless trying to argue their unreasonable logic).

The only motive for believing something that is not true, regardless of how many people believe it, or how many untruths their are is ignorance.
Ignorance runs the gambit from misunderstanding, to reinforcement by poor media, to out and out insanity or extreme devotion.
Sometimes it's less of an exercise in debate and more of gauging another's mental state, and how fast you should run from them.

Nuetralism is a way of life. Look at both sides of a story, you may find that your enemy is actually your closest friend.

I would buy your art book and philosophical rantings.
Of course, that probably isn't the point. But I would buy it all the same.

"There are always three sides to every story: your side, their side, and, somewhere in the middle is the truth."
For the life of me, I don't remember who the quote is attributed to, though.
