Conflict does tend to drive people away from interaction. People have different ways they process logic, and different ways of handling conflict. I do know that just due to the nature of bulletin boards or forums like this one, that multiple people answering one person (like is happening here) can tend to make people feel ganged up on. It's an amplification effect, and it is not real. I think virtually everyone posting on this forum, and the many lurkers who read here and are afraid to interact, are all in the same boat of endeavoring to "prove all things and hold fast to that which is good" regarding our exposure and experience in TWI. That can prove very challenging because as we've seen many things that look good on the surface don't always turn to be good in the long run. And because people hide information. We can't avoid conflict, but hopefully we can be mature enough to work through it and move beyond it.
