<p>safetypin,</p>
<p>You and PZ seem to be cut from the same clothe. I’m happy to hear that you got to attend the Toronto circle jerk in person. I’m sure it was a gratifying experience.</p>
<p>For everyone else:</p>
<p>I strongly believe that the greatness of western thought was built primarily on people choosing to say “Hey, I think your ideas are ridiculous but I’ll allow you to voice them” as opposed to “Your ideas are garbage, so I’m going to write a snide, petty, and totally juvenile letter of complaint to your program director.”</p>
<p>Asking for people’s ideas, as crazy as they may be, to be censored is the first step towards a place I don’t particularly want society to go.</p>
