  3. Ditto from this solidarity dittohead, MZ.  Our objective is much too important to not give all ideas their appropriate serious consideration.  The hope of our future lies in our ability to become stronger freethinkers.  And freethinkers treat all ideas as potential candidates for further development and followthrough.

  4. P.S.  Since I raised the flag of freethinkers…

    “Freethinkers are those who are willing to use their minds without prejudice and without fearing to understand things that clash with their own customs, privileges, or beliefs. This state of mind is not common, but it is essential for right thinking;” - Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy

  6. Not sur eof your point, William...but I’d like to think you’re saying they can’t imprison everyone.
