It doesn't seem to me like there are closed minded "spider people" challenging the validity of anyones reasons for not liking spiders in this thread ... it just appears that the intensity with which you (and some others on the thread) express your issues with spiders (as well as with Kevin) maybe puts people that do like spiders (and may or may not be friends with Kevin) a little bit on the defensive? Or I could be wrong, it happens more often than not with me.
I've yet to meet anyone that's truly passionate about spiders that would have any problems at all with others that choose not to work with spiders as long as the feelings were mutual.
This quote came to mind as I was re-reading the thread, I thought that it was appropriate no matter which side of the issue you're on -
"We confide in our strength, without boasting of it; we respect that of others, without fearing it." - Thomas Jefferson
Just my observation for whatever it's worth (which is really not all that much if anything).
