Welcome to EvC timmer,
Glad you decided to add to our diversity. We have a wide variety of forums for your debating pleasure, but I warn you it can become habit forming.
Thank you for proposing a new topic. If you read the
Forum Guidelines you will find that bare links with no supporting discussion should be avoided. If you truly wish this to be promoted into a discussion, please make the argument in your own words and use links as supporting references.
If you wish to rework your opening post into an appropriate topic opener, please reply to this message and let me know when you are ready for me to review your topic again.
In the meantime, I suggest that you familiarize yourself with the functions of EvC by using the
Practice Makes Perfect Forum or posting in existing threads.
In the purple signature box below, you'll find some links that will help make your journey here pleasant.
Pay particular attention to our Forum Guidelines and all will go well.
Again welcome and fruitful debating.
