Well...everybody's got a right to their druthers, eh? My druthers shift quickly when I find out the guy lecturing me on what oughta be valued and how life oughta be lived, turns out to be a racist and bigot who believes progressives are the ones dragging the culture down. Sometimes the message just doesn't trump the messenger. But that's just me, I guess.
I didn't need Joseph Campbell to be perfect...just a little less hypocritical.
