Yes, indeed Erin. A fine example of the leftist mind at work. The Loggins
paper wasn't politically correct. Therefore, ban it. This is precisely the
sort of censorship that goes on all the time in the educational
establishment today where students who don't toe the party line are
ridiculed, persecuted and silenced. Fortunately, several states in the
U.S. have responded to this fascist-style of intimidation by passing an
"Academic Bill of Rights" that ensures diversity of thought on campus (the
only kind of diversity that makes sense) and protects students and faculty
from ideological bullying.
Ant's blatant attack on free speech, the cornerstone of intellectual
quality, must give Pirsig second thoughts about Ant's understanding of the
MOQ. It's certainly affected my opinion. But, we all make mistakes. Let's
hope the Loggins paper is restored to the robertpirsig.org website..
