Well John, it's straight out of "On Liberty" by John Stuart Mill. I'm surprised you haven't read it, or at least the most famous part on the limits of authority.

Nonetheless, would you offer some page citations from which you get your argument? I would like to see if they say what you say they say. Standard academic process here. I'll then have to spend some time seeing if I can find text and context that supports the claim I have often heard that he made. John
