This will be encouraged; but the intention is to keep a continuing focus on the philosophical basis of his thought as well, and to sustain discussion which is philosophical in type: no empty rhetoric, no dogmatism, no personal attacks in lieu of reasoned arguments, and a standing willingness not only to be critical but to receive and even seek out criticism as well.
