(cont'd from yesterday's post)
As this interviewer explains, we can disagree with atheist Peter Boghossian on some important things while we agree on other important things. We stand together with him in the vital importance of truth and the vital importance of free speech (freedom to say what we believe is true).
As a professor, he loved teaching his students how to engage with people who think differently while remaining civil and respectful. After ten years on the faculty at Portland State University, Peter resigned his position because, in his words, his employer made it impossible to continue. According to his resignation letter:
The university "transformed a bastion of free inquiry into a Social Justice factory whose only inputs were race, gender, and victimhood and whose only outputs were grievance and division. Students at Portland State are not being taught to think. Rather, they are being trained to mimic the moral certainty of ideologues."
