Debate Decorum (Reply to Tiniowien)
Lilly

Tinoiwien, although I understand that you're sick of the debate between HP and LotR (honestly, I'm a bit tired of it myself), I really protest your statement that people who judge without reading (a people of which I am a member) disgust you. So far I've only seen people critisizing the books, not the people. Although judging without experience can be looked on as hypocritical (and I'll admit it must look that way), you needn't have attacked not only myself, but others about our opinions. In the future, please critisize the books alone and not the people who, like you, have every right to submit thier opinions: and if they disgust you so much, you needn't read the articles.
