Today sparked into a bit of a heated debate. I can't say much on it as I didn't care to, I zoned out.
I'm not sure what the argument of evolution was, all I know is I personally believe that, while we didn't evolve from monkeys, evolution is an actual thing that happens within species and that's my say on that. I'm not sure where I stand on it being taught in schools. There are limits for both things, and if Christian belief of the world were taught in schools what's to say other religions wont complain and want their beliefs to be taught, or that atheists and other religions don't want their kids hearing that message.
As to why I zoned out, conflict is never something I've enjoyed, in fact it's rather emotionally jarring to me. I don't mind if people have a discussion and listen to what each other has to say, but it bothers me when people insist that the other should believe their side, rather than accept the other side isn't going to and move on. Arguments for me hold some intense emotions that it's become something I subconsciously react badly to.
They do this because my parents often argued, they never struck one another, but they were often intense arguments nonetheless with what they said and how they said it, sometimes my mom would cry, and other times she'd just sit there and take it, and it always made me very angry because I felt she was in the right, but my dad refused to listen to her points and would insist it was her fault and whatever he was saying was the way things were. All these fights have caused a rather heavy scar on me that I get worked up during certain arguments, and I get worked up when people don't listen to me. For this reason I zoned out during the argument, it was a little too much for me.
