I made the mistake of reading a few of the comments written by Times readers, the majority of whom seem to have either misunderstood the article or not bothered to read beyond the title. One wonders why people so disdainful of the New York Times and/or philosophy would torment themselves by reading the Times' "forum for contemporary philosophers on issues both timely and timeless" known as "The Stone."
At any rate, I do recommend that you read and enjoy the article itself.

Thanks Ken -- and yes, you're right that there are some obvious knee-jerk responses going on there by people who seem to think they are the "liberal-media police".
Also, there's more serious commentary going on at National Humanities Center's forum On the Human and I think it's open for another day or two, so if anyone wants to participate, feel free!
