[Foundation-l] Pedophilia and the Non discrimination policy

[Gerard Meijssen]

Hoi,
When a group of people are to come up with a communal opinion, particularly
when this opinion is intended in order to judge a situation, a behaviour,
you can no longer dismiss this formed group opinion as just personal and
dismiss it as such. Obviously you can, because you do, but in this way you
undermine the integrity of the process whereby an arbitration committee
comes to its conclusions.
Thanks,
     Gerard
