Eric Siegel > [log in to unmask] Hmm, perhaps I chose the phrase wrongly, in a certin way, but I think it still applies to a degree, you can't have freedon of expression without free will. I'm staying out of discussions of meanings of certin loaded phrases. I just meant Dail was using the principle of free will and free expression to state its feelings over a controversial exhibit. I stand by their right as strongly as I stand by the museums right to have the exhibits. Although, if I had drawn comparisons between the museums right of freedom of expression to exhibit and Dails right of freedom of expression to say it does not support the exhibit I would have come acroos a little clearer. I stand enlightened..:)
