[QUOTE]Originally posted by sharmer2: [QB] Think that all the points on this post are valid. But Salman Rushdie has been honoured by his booker awards for his 'writing skills' and i think that was enough. To award a knighthood to a man who has offended millions of people around the world is insensitive and unecessary - and would only serve as provacation. I once wrote an essay in sociology which the teacher had set on the 'fors' of children being brought up in communes away from their parents. I argued against it constructively - i got an F. I sat with my teacher and said you cannot fail me because i don't agree with your opinion when i have explained fully why - she eventually agreed and i got a A. We will never all agree with what is right in the world and should always have a right to express our opinion - but to be knighted for expressing an opinion when you have had to be protected from people who hate you for it is offensive. Would have been better to give it to David Beckham??!! [/QB][/QUOTE]
