In theory there is the 'should', in practice there is the welcomed consensus
vs the unwelcome nut-jobs.

No need, sure, but I'm curious as to whether an opinion is available.

And is discussion of natural law/rights errant?

Should it be offline for those peculiar folk who are into 'that sort of
thing'?

As Johh Wunderlich said: "Please accept that others don't share your
assumptions and/or don't accept your assertions so they hold different
views, and leave it at that."

While one can admit that nut-jobs have different views to ours, let's not
waste time in errant discussion of them, eh?


To misquote Voltaire, "I may disapprove of what you say, but I will defend
to the death your right to say it". Let's hope it doesn't come to that.

Voltaire is dead, and the understanding of what a right is is mouldering in
a hospice somewhere...
