How am I not supposed to take offence to that post? "lame" "goofy" all directed at my thought?

So you think playing devil's advocate is lame. Do you understand that most major decisions within business and government are looked upon from the other side, if they aren't that is when you run into major problems. Many large corporations employ people to do critical thinking and make their corporate ideas as bulletproof as possible and to do this they play devil's advocate, so still lame? Many politicians employ people to do the same thing, especially in media driven USA.

Totem poles are a part of their heritage and are very much cherished and as such could be opened up to a lot of scrutiny from those who want to create issue. You need to understand where those far left are coming from and the fact that they look to create issues with anything to do with anyone's heritage could be the problem here. That is all I am saying, but to say playing devil's advocate is lame is just childish imo.
