Thread Name: Methodologies II
Subject: RE: Methodologies II
This discussion has been done a lot, hasn't it? All I was ever trying to say is that people are entitled to whatever prejudices and biases they choose. The line is crossed when they insist that other people agree with them, and in extreme cases do them some kind of harm. There is that famous story of when Bob Dylan first appeared with his electric band at the Newport Folk Festival in one of those mid-sixties years, and people got MAD. The story goes that Pete Seeger was so enraged that, when they wouldn't let him turn off the power, he tried to take a fire axe to the cables. What kind of nuttiness is this. There's too much nuttiness in the world already.

I'm done, Chet W.
