@jmc5335 GGGGGGGGGreat to hear from you. I live in a hailstorm of criticism as an author and an artist. You have collected your data and you have formulated an opinion. I was out to lunch with an economist the other day and we were talking about the economic problems of a certain country and I said, all of you at work---he works with 6 economists in his bank---all you you must agree it's a very serious situation. He said "What do you mean?" I said" well, you and your colleagues must all be in shock at what's happening." He said "You don't understand, I work with 6 economists and we have never, ever agreed on anything. Because all of us have our own data and make our own research so everyone predicts different results." Sam Harris has certainly upset people, but you only get upset when someone says something that in the back of your mind you agree with. If a bum begging quarters in the street calls you a jerk when you don't give him some change, do you get upset? Hek no. Why? Because you know you're not a jerk; you laugh it off. However; If your boss at work says you could do a better job and you explode, it's because somewhere deep in your mind you agree with him, but cannot admit it. Happens all the time when you're married, your old lady criticizes you for getting a belly and you want to throw up on her---she, hit a nerve and you know you're too fat but will never accept it coming from her. Arthur Rimbaud says the only art is art that provokes, Sam Harris provokes and that's why I will always back him. A person has to speak his mind or we're all wasting our time. He's got the right to make mistakes just like you and me...
