That's funny because it makes no sense.
"Remember, there are always two sides of a story and the truth lies somewhere inbetween.'
That's wrong because it assumes that both sides have a credible argument and that's an absolute. This pays no attention at all to veracity of either side.
That's why what I say is correct: "Just because there are 2 sides to a debate
doesn't necessarily mean the truth lies somewhere in the middle, one side can be wrong"
For example, is the truth about evolution and creationism somewhere in between? Is the truth about pro-choice and pro-life somewhere in between? Is the truth about the Israeli / Palestinian conflict somewhere in between?
