Why on earth do you need/want to do that? I ask not for my own information,
but I suspect that you might find out a lot about you if you answered it
just for yourself.

Please allow me to express my sympathies on the damagaged friendship.
I hope that you and your friend do make peace.
But, for all the non-friends, I say:
FUCK 'EM IF THEY CAN'T TAKE A NEW IDEA!
If we waited for the lowest common denominator to accept a new idea
we would still be in a cave arguing if it's blasphemous to rub two
sticks together.

You have 2 choices: you can be you or you can be like them.
