I have no problem with this position, which is very similar to that of John Derbyshire.

John Derbyshire, really? That guy has enough problems of his own.

I don’t see why anyone would ever have any problem with anyone else’s personal religious persuasion, as long as it doesn’t break your leg or pick your pocket.

Neither, do I. I believe, yet I refuse to pound my beliefs over anyone's head. I expect the same consideration in return. This is the first time I have heard his position, so Will is cool with me.

John Derbyshire

I really liked his book "Unknown Quantity: A Real And Imaginary History of Algebra."

Derbyshire’s isn’t low voltage. His position was confrontational, unlike Will. Derb is willful, Will is a droid.
