Pyrrho, I'll agree that anti-intellectual attitudes are a serious issue in the US, but the connection to the Charleston shooting seems forced, and it therefore leaves a very bad taste in my mouth to use the shooting as a talking point in this fight. I'd rather not join the ranks of those who use the latest tragedy to raise awareness for their pet issue. It just seems too far-fetched to be justified.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
Psalm 14, KJV revised edition
