Feel free to write whatever you want but tomorrow we >move on. That's not ok, for all the reasons I listed before which you clipped (but I restored below). What's more, the day's almost over here and I have plans for the evening, so I guess you're saying that Amith gets the last word on the subject. You yourself made some brief but sharp remarks on the subject (essentially denying what I thought I proved in my post) so you should either be willing to defend that, retract your erroneous position, or admit that you're unsure. If you are unsure, then you should be soliciting additional information and discussion, not preventing it. Pretending the issue doesn't exist on this list does nothing to resolve the issue among the other 99% of the left who face the same issues. - Jeff At 17:52 29-04-16 +0200, Jeff via Marxism wrote: > >At 11:29 29-04-16 -0400, Louis Proyect via Marxism wrote: >> >>I made a mistake by getting into the Allison Weir question.
