Dear Gregg & Co

Full and unreserved support. This is just decent and well performed
moderation of our work tools and environments. If warnings are not adhered
to, this is the way to go.
Please note that as we get closer to an understanding of what it takes to
build a proper grand narrative for the social sciences or for philosophy,
we are likely to encounter all kinds of religious beliefs from the past
that feel we enter into what they believed was their monopoly. Especially
threatened by us as we build our narratives through proper scientific
methods. Let's handle them with care, listen, learn and respect, but to
also do so with the utmost integrity and respect toward ourselves and our
commitments. It's time to move on.

Big love
Alexander
