So apparently this is the Tweet that somehow put me on @DeepakChopra's radar today: A public invitation from a woman who works for him to his conference next month. I politely decline his kind offer.https://twitter.com/KristinMeekhof/status/1184854924741480449 …

In fact, I rather suspect that this is far more about appearing fair to the world than anything else. If
@DeepakChopra were really serious about having any of us "apostles of scientism" participate in his symposium, he would've reached out privately and invited us a long time agoShow this thread -
Just having his assistant tag us all in a Tweet to invite us less than a month before the symposium looks to me to be about appearance, not substance, particularly his chiming in afterwards.

After all, in my case at least, as a surgeon I need a full month's (at least) notice because, outside of emergencies, my cancer center requires at least that much notice for me to cancel a clinic.

In any event, it's strange to be in the same company as
@RichardDawkins,@Evolutionistrue,@SamHarrisOrg,@michaelshermer, and@jimmy_wales on@DeepakChopra's list.Show this thread -
And, predictably,
@DeepakChopra's response is condescending, probably because I called him out for the obvious bad faith behind the invitation and the disrespectful way that it was delivered in public.https://twitter.com/DeepakChopra/status/1184974221773926400?s=20 …Show this thread
