I have a higher opinion of people as a whole than whoever invented the not talking about religion or politics saying. Religion and politics make for very engaging debates, and if I can't talk about these things with a friend then I'm not apt to keep 'em very long. And yes, my friends have a wide assortment of worldviews.
I found the thread we speak of a very interesting experiment. And I agree with Zeke -- it seems the problem was more external meta-debate than internal political debate.
