It's almost as though Dr. Chopra doesn't view me as his equal and therefore leaves all the "dirty work" of contacting me to his underling. I was polite about it a year ago, perhaps overly so, but it rankles, particularly now that @KristinMeekhof is using the offer against me. 13/
It's almost as though Dr. Chopra only wants me to show up as a foil for a "debate" on friendly ground, where the audience came to see him and not me. @MichaelShermer or @BillNye might like such situations, but I'm not Shermer or Nye. 14/
If Dr. Chopra is serious about wanting a dialogue, let him start it in private. If the private dialogue ends up fostering trust, only then would I consider taking it public. Given Dr. Chopra's past behavior, I have a hard time trusting him enough just to say yes on Twitter. 15/
Finally, if @DeepakChopra, @KristinMeekhof, or anyone working for Dr. Chopra publicly uses this Tweetstorm to try to portray me as "afraid" of debate, my answer will go from "let's start talking privately and see where things go" to a hard "no." 16/
This is the last time I will tag @DeepakChopra or @KristinMeekhof in any Tweets about this. Namaste. 17/17
