To the OP let me begin by welcoming you to YT. And to further say I've read through this entire thread and understand what you are saying, at times some of us do become overly passionate in our opinions/beliefs, etc. However, that being said there is a thread that I try to recommend for all newbies to read.

Again welcome and hope that you'll stick around.
