Discussing? Sure. Why not? To be awake is to be open and that means to be endlessly open to unfolding, new lessons, new possibilities. Deeper understanding. Awakening isn’t an ending, it’s an endless joyous beginning. I guess it’s how you choose to look at it. Arguing? Well I don’t believe too much can be learned by arguing so much. Making a point? Yes why not? I enjoy expressing myself and sharing ideas.

God cannot help but to yearn for an understanding of itself in any and all possibilities and expressions.

Would you really be discussing anything, or trying to make a point, or having an opinion, or arguing, or debating or.....

All, both, and none.

I’ve heard it said that a fully awakened human is incapable of violence.

Maurice Nicoll, a Scottish physician and a Teacher of Gurdjieffs system related a vivid dream he had. There was a man who was being harassed by some people but he seemed to be not affected at all. He remained passive and calm in the face of their taunts. Nicoll referred to him as a man of no violence who possessed a curious power.

He tells the story better than I do. I recommend the Psychological Commentaries on the Teaching of Gurdjieff and Ouspensky.
It’s a very comprehensive yet readable set of 5 volumes containing around 4500 pages. His lightheartedness and sometimes blunt statements makes for enjoyable reading.
