I can provide proof of decreasing prejudices. geocities.com I'm pleased to see that "Today, a decreasing number of Americans believe the accusation that gay people are child molesters, ", for example. I found numerous other examples of decreasing prejudice in our society- is a correlation causation? No. But it's worth studying to find out if what society does not allow people to say (by stigmatizing those who say it) affects general thought patterns, and tends to elimate bigotry. I love the "you can provide no proof" stuff, It brings back so many memories. eagletribune.com washingtonpost.com washingtonpost.com Tolerance seems to have grown at the same as PC- I think they are probably related. Is someone studying the relationship? Probably. I'll see if I can find it. Now can you find proof for your assertion? "There is absolutely no evidence that politically correct speech has in any way contributed to a decrease in bigotry. At best, it helps to hide it." Your assertion (or part of it), in case you have forgotten, is that it helps to "hide" it. Can you find any proof for that?
