Folks: Some of you have done a thorough job of picking apart the author of this article, whose basic point was that everyone in this world is a fellow human, regardless of which borders they live in. Today, on this website, you will find that spirit on this website with the other discussion threads covering topics, e.g.:

Torture of Iraqis by Saddam, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, etc.

but not on this thread.

He did not say that we should tolerate injustice or evil, whether it is in Iraq, 37th St Manhattan, or Zimbabwe, or even laziness.

The problem here is that he happens to be a Diversity Professor in Maine (a "liberal" state). Some people connect that with him being a Pacifist Socialist.

By the way, Baha'u'llah, whom he quotes, said a bit more than what is quoted here - try more than 160 books and tablets worth - much written while imprisoned.

Besides, is it really so bad "for the children" that they grow learning about life in Norway?

Problem is our universities are dominated by idiots like him. I wouldn't mind a few but they're all over and only hire their own.

We need some hard headed liberal arts professors who teach about what made America great. We have enough multi-culti clones like the author of the editorial.

You missed the whole point of this guy's exceptionally sappy article. Do you think statements like "unearned privileges" are logical? If I say that in the course of something I write that I love everybody and everything, does that make it some kind of deep statement?

This professor has his cranium jammed deeply up his anal orifice. He's swallowed the book "The Extreme Liberal Guide To Happiness" whole. By regurgitating all the current leftist drivel and cant, he sounds like he doesn't have an original thought in his head. It's like he's some sort of leftist automaton.
