"It also sounds like we are wildly out of touch with political reality. This all reinforces the idea that we are alien and not like reasonable people. Yet it's all being done for a very distant, theoretical possibility that would only come about when the rest of society decides on its own that a change is needed."

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." - Margaret Mead

"It seems to me like it ought to be OK, but society is full of smart and insightful people who don't think so, and I do seem to have a vested interest in the outcome, so I'll leave that question up to society"

I have found, over and over again, that society is in short supply of smart and insightful people; I have found, over and over again, that intelligence and insight is generally limited to the scope of a person's activities; I have found, over and over again, that everyone has vested interests. I see no reason to leave this conversation to those who are fools, those who are not paying attention, and those whose vested interests are directly opposed to the interests of children. If there is one thing that church taught me, it is never to leave important decisions to the clueless or the malignant.
