But in the real world where societies are plural, then it is both inevitable and important that people offend the sensibilities of others. Inevitable, because where different beliefs are deeply held, clashes are unavoidable. And we should deal with those clashes rather than suppress them.

The right to ?subject each others? fundamental beliefs to criticism? is the bedrock of an open, diverse society.
