Relationships : Meant to be or suppose to be?

with that logic, if congress is debating and about to pass a law on gay rights and the topic digressed to abortion due to tangents, does congress end up passing a law about abortion? we may not be senators and representatives here but this is the rubix's cube, a place for intellectual discussion; not a conversation in social forum or the funhouse.

So, an 'intellectual discussion' cannot twiddle between topics?

I fail to see your logic. A discussion is a form of conversation.
