Both Sides Now

As the culture war rages around us I'm increasingly struck by the inadequacy of reducing issues of socio-politico importance to just two sides. I reckon that figuring out a good ten sides on a question before you start pontificating upon it should be a requirement for any commentator.

(To be honest, there aren't that many signs of the conflict in this Far Place so far. But since so many folks seem to enjoy battling it out on the World Wide Web I can easily imagine a descent into name-calling even on these relatively sane shores.)
