That can be the case, but if people are using sound evidence and using it properly, differences of opinion can be enhancing. I am happy to be wrong – as long as I am countered with relevant and sound argument and evidence. I learn from it. I feel fortunate in this way though, as this does not appear to be universal.

It’s when people subvert evidence, or use cheap sloganeering instead of thorough argument is when it is a problem.

Don’t know if I would be happy to be wrong. Will let you know if it ever happens.<laugh>

Watched the Confession Killer, about Henry Lee Lucas. Well worth a view in my opinion.
 
Defiance was on BBC 2 last night, Daniel Craig stars in the true story of Jewish brothers who saved 1,200 Eastern European Jews by hiding them in a forest in Poland in WW2. Well worth a watch if you get the chance.

Yes, saw that a while ago, it is good.
 
Martin Scorsese’s mob epic The Irishman has been revealed as the leading film at the 2020 Critics’ Choice Awards.

The three-and-a-half hour drama — which stars Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci and Al Pacino, following the story of notorious union leader Jimmy Hoffa and hitman Frank Sheeran — is featured in 14 categories, including Best Picture.

De Niro is given a nod in the Best Actor field, while Pacino and Pesci are both named as possibles for Best Supporting Actor. Scorsese is up for Best Director.
 
I watched The Spy last week, it’s pretty good, but it’s odd watching Sacha Baron Cohen playing such a serious role, I kept expecting jokes.

I’m now watching Messiah, which is quite a clever idea, interesting to see how the modern world reacts to Jesus rocking up.

Just binged watched Messiah, very good series.

Watched both "The Spy" with Sacha Baron Cohen and "Messiah'. The first, a true story, was brilliant with Cohen excellent in the title role. The Messiah is an interesting attempt to hypothesize on the political/social impact of "the second coming". Fascinating theme. I am eagerly looking forward to the second season.

Watched The Messiah aka Issa 2.0, thought it was a bit slow and dull.
The Spy was better IMHO.
