On the "air we all breathe" point: why is the focus on racism and colonialism and so on? Why not instead demand that the relevant institutions, most obviously those communist parties that remain active, issue multiple formal apologies for communism? Why is Mao still on China's currency, for instance?

Some people share songs they can't get out of their heads, which then gets stuck in whomever is listening to the complaint. I can't get a parallel-sounding argument to the title out of my head, that is, "it takes a village to raise a child." Was that purposeful?

I don't believe the veracity of Hilary's claim, because even though I mostly agree with the facts (eg, I want children at Classic Schools or homeschooled), I don't agree with her unstated implication, which was, God was wrong that parents are enough, kids need bigger government to be raised successfully.

I think the Bible treats the fostering of truth differently than raising a child, so the comparison doesn't work for me, but I wouldn't be surprised if your post had a wider audience, then a progressive might make the comparison.

Anyhow, thank you for sharing another conference report. I enjpy reading what you see and hear at conferences.
