"Scientologists should be free to believe
whatever outrageous UFO nonsense they wish. But I must be free to describe their UFO nonsense in those terms and be free to
discourage the overly credulous from believing Scientological faith and practice where a high credit card limit may purchase
their ersatz salvation. Once the government steps in to say that my disagreement may bring Scientology into hatred and
contempt I can only reply, yes, that is the precise idea.
"There are many ideologies that should be brought into hatred and contempt, must be if liberty -- civilization itself -- is
to survive. That our law is incapable of distinguishing between opposition to an ideology and incitement to violence against
the con artists and rubes who advance it is to show not only badly written law but a Canadian Establishment that has lost the
capacity for reason."
