tcpipTomorrow evening I am speaking at the Melbourne Existentialist Society on "Autonomy and the Phenomenology of Nature and Property", which relates to an interest some fifteen years old in my persective; developing a political and economic outlook to existentialism. Next week (same location, same time) is the Melbourne Atheist Society, with Russell Blackford speaking on "Religious Vilification and Freedom of Speech", on which I've already stated my point-of-view in various forums (simply put: many racial and religious practises and beliefs and the people who espouse them are deserving of ridicule, contempt and even hatred; I encourage and incite others to express the same).

Date: 2007-08-09 12:06 pm (UTC)I acknowledge I was ambigious in the comments prior to your response. To clarify; harm does not mean you advocate violence against a speaker or actor. It may, as you suggest, bring harm to their reputation.
And damn straight the evil people deserve it who suggest that it's OK to cut up young women's genitals because it's "their culture" or the morons who think stones can turn into camels because it says so in their 'holy book'. Such people deserve harm of this nature. They deserve to be called evil or stupid, as the case demands.
