It is time we had an interdisciplinary world. It is time we created a society where all levels of thinking and society can work together – so the individual psychologies can live together in a more
integrated society. Interdisciplinary thinking tries to promote environmentalism, capitalism, religion, heroic
individualism, and families simultaneously. Beauty, truth, and ethics are united.

Who Defends Free Speech?
It is so nice to read a clear-headed argument about anything -- but especially when it involves the issue of free speech.
Unrelated but interesting juxtaposition: one of the conditions of a school-sponsored scholarship I applied for at UTD this year was that I not be a member of the communist party.

It seems cliché to blame this on "liberalism," but from the information given, it seems appropriate, alas. After the Holocaust, one can understand Europe's sensitivity towards perceived racism, but one should expect that the same historical circumstances would highlight the importance of freedom of speech and the public's ability to evaluate ideas for themselves.

Wow. I didn't think there were still remnants of that in the U.S. Of course, since it does, I'm not surprised that it's in Texas.
