inclusion




Last night on the News Hour on PBS, there was a segment about two academics 
with dichotomously opposing viewpoints on the stock market, and how to 
invest in it.  Both have best selling books,with totally different ideas, 
yet rather than being at each others throats, they are the best of friends, 
and have been for 35 years.  I realized while watching that I, an agnostic 
liberal, have made and maintained friendships with conservative Republican 
Mormons, Catholics, atheists, Jews, and possibly people who believe that God 
is made of pepperjack cheese and lives on the moon.
                                                                          
Yesterday, Doug Wilson made a comment about "university town liberalism and 
provincialism" or some such twaddle.  This leads to a question.  Doug, among 
your circle of friends, do you have any that do not cleave to your religious 
or policical views?  Or do they have to pass a litmus test before being 
included in such a no doubt exquisite group?  I rather think they do.  
Correct me if I'm wrong, but if I'm right about this, what right have you to 
accuse others of exclusion?
