Hi, I'm John Stone Street with the point this week. We're taking a look back at some of the most important

commentaries from the past year.

In response to critical race theory on campus, Tennessee lawmakers have now introduced a list of divisive concepts, which under a law that was passed last year would be prohibited from being taught on college campuses.

The banned concepts include ideas that cause an individual to feel discomfort, guilt, or some other form

of psychological distress because of their race or their sex.

Also banned would be the idea that the state of Tennessee or the United States of America

is inherently racist or sexist.

Students can report professors for corrective action.

As Princeton University's Robert George tweeted in response, this is not the way to counter

bad ideas at the university level.

The best way is to expose them, not ban them.

Quote, the right strategy is creating vibrant intellectually serious new departments and

programs he wrote.

Especially at the college level, we need more discussion in serious debate of ideas, not less.

Young adults should be taught how to recognize, confront, and critique bad thinking,

especially influential bad thinking.

CS Lewis said we need good philosophy if for no other reason

then bad philosophy exist.

But the Colston Center, I'm John Stone Street.
