Impressive.

Note that it was apparently written by a Canadian, eh?

A reasonable man does not stand up against the status quo.
A reasonable man does not openly oppose that which is
generally accepted. A reasonable man does not stand up for
his beliefs and suffer the approbation, ridicule, and persecution
of his fellows.  A reasonable man does not put his life at risk
over a matter of conscience.

In short, the world does not advance on the backs of
reasonable men.  It only moves forward kicking, and
screaming, and resisting; by the implacable advance of
unreasonable men.  If something proposed by a powerful
organization seems reasonable to right thinking people, then it
is probably something to be greatly feared.
