The Argument for Tonight:
Is there such a thing as “too much education”?
If true facts can cause net damage, is truth not an unqualified good?
Is a lie of omission really a lie?
Where’s the line between “spinning” something to make it sound different–in a way which may prevent it from causing harm–and lying? Is it only lying if it’s harmful?

P.S. Nifty thing I learned: The first use of the word “blog” was Samuel Adams in 1774. He kept an account of the Boston Tea Party in a journal he called “the Boston Log”, and apparently referred to in front of his friends as his “Blog”.
