Today it is impossible to debate when more than three people discussing. Already happened to me several times and is somewhat frustrating. In fact I do not even try. The reason is simple, easy and - last but not least - is showing imperceptible rate homo sapiens sapiens that we are becoming. Obviously not exaggerate, but everyone is so stuck to "their" true that, from the minute it is assembled into question those scandal. And most importantly be heard to take the time to listen to others, the discussion becomes a shouting nonsense, where words fly at random and where you lose patience (and sanity).
I read once that in the thirteenth century during the so-called school Scholastica are all kinds of philosophical debates, calls Disputatae Quaestiones, where groups with opposing views on an issue discussed in particular. And if someone interrumpía al otro se le cortaba la lengua en castigo. Bueno, no estaría mal iniciar dicha práctica en el siglo XXI para educar a algunos deslenguados. ¿Por qué el afán constante de interrumpir?
Por eso soy más amigo de la conversación bipolar. Porque al menos ahí se dan los espacios naturales del diálogo para escuchar y ser escuchado. Mientras tanto, y como para no quedarme afuera de la reunión, escucho en silencio las peleas sofísticas de unos y de otros comiéndome las ganas de participar.
