The only "injury" these "debate" posts can do is the injury you allow, Wax Frog. You may find it helpful to view these types of posts as exercises to strengthen your belief (kind of like LoA bench presses, if you will). And, if you think you don't know how, just think of what goes on in your mind when someone tries to convince you of a reality that you KNOW is patently untrue for you. (Examples: things "fall" up, slavery is good, whatever.)
You could use one of my favorite mantras (from "The Wizard of Oz" when the Wicked Witch of the West threatens Dorothy in Munchkinland, Glinda says): "Ooo-hoo-hoo. Rubbish! You have no power here. Be gone! Before someone drops a house on you!" (Works in so many situations.)
Or, if you're really that unsure, stop reading the "debate" threads. (I often do this, not because I'm unsure, but because it feels better for me to allow others to create their realities as I go on creating my own.)
