[Vision2020] Open Gathering - 22 Feb 2011

[Kenneth Marcy]

I agree that Dr. Ghazanfar is an interesting speaker worth hearing. He has 
been a Palouse-area resident for half a century, attending and teaching at the 
Universities, and providing valuable and welcome services to the community.

However, let us distinguish between the man and his topics. As a university 
professor Dr. Ghazanfar taught economics, a powerful subject which affects 
almost everyone, for good or ill. Likewise, Islam affects many, adherents or 
not. Bring your wits with you, as both topics are needful things, not answered 
prayers.
