Ouch!!

James Watson, Nobel laureate has foot in mouth disease.

Africans are not as intelligent as Caucasians. Yes they are. No they're not, yes they are... No this isn't what I said.
Dear me, poor James Watson has made a booboo by stating what he thinks. God forbid anybody says what they think when it is politically incorrect. Even if they are a Nobel prizewinner.

Whether you agree or disagree with what somebody says it shouldn't be censored. Political correctness is a form of censorship.

In todays world, issues cannot be discussed out in the open if they are considered politically incorrect. We can bury our heads in the sand and feel self-righteous by adhering only to politically correct opinions.

Examples such as :
  • human beings are responsible for the greenhouse effect
  • eugenics is bad
  • euthanasia is wrong
  • Islam is the religion of peace

Freedom of thought should not be ruled by ignorance or political correctness.
