Well, it certainly wasn't Albert Einstein. The quote first appeared in print in 1983 (in a book by Rita Mae Brown), when Albert Einstein had already been dead for 28 years.
It wasn't Rita Mae Brown either, it first appeared in the Narcotics Anonymous handbook in 1981.

So what makes the conversation unhealthy? Zeal and vigor merely indicates you care. That's healthy especially given the debate is about our origins which I think would be important to most people.
I don't think having a healthy passion for an opinion or belief is inherently wrong. However, as I've already stated, you can see a demonstration of how people react to this subject already.
So what I'm getting is that you talked with some people for a short while and for some reason expected them to change just because they had a conversation. But why should they change their views? It's not healthy just to change opinions and beliefs for change's sake.
When it comes to matters of theology, I've found that it's difficult for most people to have a healthy conversation about the subject of evolution. There's always an exception to the normal, but humans are emotional and passionate creatures. You can scroll up and read the comments here for some examples what the conversations usually devolve into.
Side note: My wife ordered me a new watch on Dec. 4, shipped via UPS.
The current arrival date is sometime after Jan. 4.
Something tells me this has something to do with the fulfillment and not the shipper. You don't want to/can't wait for a package? Go to the store.
