Argument

With thanks to Carmon, I provide you with some food for thought:

G.K. Chesterton said, “My brother, Cecil Edward Chesterton, was born when I was about five years old; and, after a brief pause, began to argue. He continued to argue to the end. . . . I am glad to think that through all those years we never stopped arguing; and we never once quarreled. Perhaps the principal objection to a quarrel is that it interrupts an argument.”

"Quarrels are sectarian and counterproductive to learning. Real education occurs in community—an incendiary fellowship—a 'community of argument.'" - Dean Bruce W Green of the Liberty University School of Law

I find this to be a helpful thought. One brother recently called for an end to quarreling over a particular subject, and was answered with accusations that his own call contributed to the quarrel. I can only imagine that there is a real difference between argument and quarrel and that those accusers did not know that difference.
