What is this obsession that Americans have with either being for or against? The world is a complex place and in science there are no absolutes, (other than theoretical like absolute zero) so in life which is even more disorganised, there are no absolutes, only differing shades of grey. Settle down, stop looking for someone to fight with.

It's amusing to watch apes in bars getting into loud arguments or even fist fights because they disagree about sports teams. "For or against" has no limits.
