You continue to assume, without backing up the claim, that saying that
someone is wrong about something must make them feel unwelcome or
excluded or discriminated against. This seems to be the fundamental
point of disagreement, and the one we should address. I believe in a
community where dissent and polite disagreement on a wide range of
topics can happen without it fracturing into pieces. Do you?
If not, where are the boundaries here, in your view?
IMHO, anything where you say some*one* is wrong as a person should not
happen at Mozilla. People have different views and they are right in
what they say according to those views, even if other people disagree,
which is fine. "I don't agree with you" is good, "you are wrong" is bad.
Also IMHO, matters of belief that cannot be objectively proven or
verified/falsified - like religion - are absolutely fine but, at least
within Mozilla, should never be forced upon other people.
All that said, I personally am happy to learn about those things on
Planet because I want to see the *people* I'm interacting with there,
and their beliefs are a part of them. Still, given that we are an
inclusive community, we can't force any such beliefs on anyone else or
call them flat out "wrong" when interacting within this community, I think.
