Eternal

Are some arguments eternal, if there is no answer, why argue?

Yes, if one party doesn't know when to button it and walk away, some arguments could easily become eternal.

You also say - " if there is no answer, why argue?"

The answer to that is usually because one party is a beligerrent control freak and they cannot let go until they win.

It feeds their ego.

Re: Eternal

The Old Labour V Conservative is an eternal argument. I have been listening to their rubbish for fifty odd years and still no one knows what's best, only what's NOT best.
