And on Twitter we can see “edgy” Simon Longstaff commenting on the issue.
Oh gee people read the session title – silly silly people – they should have simply assumed the session title had nothing to do with the content, apparently.
Only, the title is so unambiguous, isn’t it. “Honour killing is morally justified.” It says what it says. It doesn’t even pose it as a question.
Also? Saying “honour killing is morally justified” is not the same thing as “discussing evil.” The right title for the latter would have been, say, “Discussing the evil of honour killing.”
But he’s getting lots of attention for the FODI; no doubt that was the goal all along.
