I don't understand

The amount of flack I've gotten for wanting to teach about Forge theory without arguing about it. Do people not understand the difference between a polemic and a teaching text? Or do the simply not recognize the latter as having any value?

Feh.

I suspect two things:
1) people that believe the theory isn't worthy of being taught
2) people who are more interested in arguing than teaching
