What happened to discussion/debate in the reptile community?

[Tiny Boidae]

I don't really feel like I have much say in this, but I've noticed a lot of close-minded people not only in the hobby, but the world in general. No one's really willing to listen to the other half or admit that they're wrong. Debate is pointless because no one's willing to say "Okay maybe you're right" or change what they're doing no matter what you say. Vanity is a cultural norm nowadays, and it's driving away at the extinction of intelligent debate. After all, someone's feelings might get hurt!
