Arguments vs. Discourse response
Arguing is what makes everyone express that they have their own opinion on a subject. Sometimes arguments help bring out the attention to key facts that would have probably been over looked otherwise. It's another way of communication and doesn't signify a hatred for the person they are arguing with, just the clashing opinions of them; like animals who will fight over something and then get along.
If you have a dog, or another pet, there might be times where your pet would get angry at you, possibly become posessive or they might not want you anywhere near them, and after they're over that event, of whatever did happen, they'll let you close and might give you some kisses, telling you they're fine.
As stated, the ancient Greeks would argue about things all day for fun and then shake hands and go home. They argue, but they make up in the end, because opinions are what makes everyone unique and their own person.
In some arguments, the two parties will get so steamed at the refusal of the other party to accept their ideas that the two will go away, storming off. Sometimes it's just better to walk away, and once it's realized as pointless to continue, the two parties would not have come to any terms of acceptance of the other idea. That's why when people argue about things relating to politics and religion that they get mad at each other, because those two things are hard to see another side of things on. As well as the idea of what happens after death, where there's no solid proof to back up any statement.
Some people might think that rules should be made about how to argue and what to do in an argument. Wouldn't everyone start arguing about the rules then? I don't think we should have any rules in that case.
A few people might think it's a good idea to have rules because it would prevent anger from escalating during an argument. (Do you think anger or argument branched off from each other?)
In my opinion, anger isn't the cause of arguments, although some usually get angry during arguments. Clashing beliefs, ideas and a misunderstanding are causes of arguments, and the causes of war. The only way to stop these problems from escalating into wars would be figuring out how to understand other views and where your own flaws, and accepting it. As well, anyone that can't think with a level head should not be in control of a large force capable of possessing heavy artillery and invading another area.
I'm not capable of writing a lot on this subject because I'm a very complacent character and if I get in an argument, I usually have a good reason for it... I think. Actually, I don't recall getting in an argument... Complaining, yes, arguing, not so much...
I don't know what discourse is, and I was hoping to see it in the question, but sometimes you have to live with something you don't understand, which is another thing some people end up arguing about, the lack of information they were given.
Maybe the goal is conversation and not arguing, because conversation is with a little more open mind to new ideas instead of in a box and trying to preach at someone who doesn't care about what you're saying and has their own ideas already.

First off: "I don't know what discourse is, and I was hoping to see it in the question." That's my mistake. Sorry about that. Discourse is a formal conversation, like a debate.
ReplyDeleteAgain, great job! You seem to have a talent for using a lot of great detail to support an argument.
