Anthony Kellett | Douglas Murray - Misguided and Misplaced Western Masochism @AnthonyKellett | Uploaded January 2019 | Updated October 2024, 26 minutes ago.
I normally add some comments, but I think Douglas Murray says enough, for me. I wouldn’t wish to dilute it or distract from it.
As uplifting as his speech was, I will have to give the ‘Quote of the Debate’ award to Ibn Warraq, when he neatly summed up his yardstick for the superiority of Western civilisation, when compared to more tyrannical, theocratic regimes. He declared: “I do not wish to live in a society where you get stoned for adultery. I prefer to live in a society where we get stoned, first, and then commit adultery!”
