A commenter at the materialist website In Mala Fide refers to me in passing as “the most rigid and dogmatic social con imaginable,” I’m a sucker for flattery.

I was the commenter who wrote that. I’ve actually been a reader of yours for three years or so, so I’m glad you could take it as flattery. Dogmatism and rigidity in resistance to liberalism are no vices.LA replies: Well, I didn’t really think you meant it as flattery, but, in a half serious half humorous way, I was turning it around to make it something positive. “Hey, a conservative ought to be dogmatic and rigid.” Posted by Lawrence Auster at September 01, 2009 06:54 PM | Send Email entry |
