The reaction to Dr Lindsay's talk, & now the pushback against the CFI, perfectly demonstrates what happens when ideology trumps rationality.

@philosophyexp I've read parts of it. I'll read it later; just on phne now. 1st thing I read was his response & I didn't think much of it
@mollydot The resp. he apologised for? The issue isn't whether his speech is any good - lots aren't - it's the proportionality of response.

@philosophyexp He apologised for his response? Didn't know that. Not following it. Have seen yr tweets,his response & a couple of anti posts -
@mollydot He apologises here (but I'm not sure what response you're talking about): http://bit.ly/15fuk9p -
@PhilosophyExp Reading his response now, I can only say: My god, the man's an idiot. Wrong. Illogical. Wrong. Misquote? Uncharitable reading -
@PhilosophyExp And that's without having read Watson's post. His post doesn't stand up by itself. -
@mollydot The post seems fine to me... -
@PhilosophyExp You don't see *anything* wrong with it? (Excluding Korea remark) -
@mollydot It's a blog post, there's going to be lots wrong with it! But it's no worse than many blog posts (and better than many).
