This is getting seriously twisted.

At no point did I say or imply she should be muzzled.

If an organization you belong requires you to practice evil, is it not your responsibility to disassociate yourself from it and then oppose it?
Are you telling me you disagree with that?

In a country of 1 billion people, almost all of whom are impoverished and many of whom are starving, what do you call an effort whose effect is to increase trhe population still further? Yes, I call it evil and no pious incantations will make it otherwise. I did not say should be muzzled; said she should not have done what she did. Also, other people should not have supported her.

And, yes, in any decent system of gov't one should have a right to express any opinion.

Have you seen these posts by E? I think they advance the argument.
