Re: The nuns again
"The Sisters of Saint Joseph told all of us not to compare report cards."
Fortunately I went to public schools, possibly cause my beloved Dad was a heathen Protestant.
Knowing the kinda red-headed kid I was, I woulda gotten lots of ruler hits on the knuckles.
But to your point, my contention was not raised as intended to be a relativist thing. It evolved down that path in an attempt to illustrate a POV. It is important to be able to openly criticize bad behaviour. I view the overwhelming silence of Muslim clerics in this country as bad behaviour. They should look at their A student Muslim competition in Indonesia, a far less safe place to speak critically of Islamists.
