About the arguing - if it is unproductive or name-calling or offends others needlessly due to poor wording, or so controversial that it really CAN'T be a productive discussion, yes, that's a problem.
But, if it it an honest disagreement with people who really need, for whatever reason, to speak their mind, well, that is part of what the safety is about - the ability to be able to speak your mind without being shot to hell or flamed or called names, etc.
"Safe enough" to allow for disagreement without, as Tim FTUSA mentioned, just unthinkingly telling each other what we want to hear.
Sometimes, depending on the topic, I just choose to ignore a thread or (rarely) get disgusted and stop reading.
But, it's like reading a newspaper - not every thread will appeal to all so you seek out (or create!) the parts you like. Overall, the variety can be healthy.
I am SO glad that you ARE comfortable enough to tell us to stop bickering, Andy - that means "it" is working and your feedback may be a bit of a "mood meter." And the silliness helps keep things in perspective!
Okay, enough of my blathering already!
