			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://nickycheese.blogivists.com"><img class="alignleft alignnone size-medium wp-image-28" style="float: left" src="http://blog.blogivists.com/files/2008/05/nc_profile_smll-avatar1.jpg" alt="" width="75" height="75" /></a>They tell me diversity of thought is good, an end in of itself. That it may foster critical thinking skills &#8211; and, thereby, work as a means towards ultimate truth &#8211; is both incidental and bordering on the irrelevant.</p>
<p>Now I don&#8217;t buy into the relativistic claim but, as it turns out, blogivists.com is ideologically diverse! I mean, don&#8217;t get me wrong &#8211; everyone here believes that government is, more often than not, the anti-solution but even so, there&#8217;s quite a bit of variety here when it comes down to the specifics.</p>
<p>To demonstrate, let&#8217;s look at the past couple months. I&#8217;ll name a few issues and give you a couple pro and con posts from within the <a href="http://www.blogivists.com">Blogivists</a> community. Hot dawg!</p>

</ul>
<p>There you go. And that&#8217;s just off the top of my head. Really! So, what I&#8217;m getting at here is: with a more thorough internal investigation, we could probably apply for some kind of government subsidy&#8230;</p>
<p>Haha. Just kidding! I think that&#8217;s one specific we&#8217;re unanimously against.</p>
<p>Cheers&#8230;to truth and liberty!</p>
