Defining the Terms of Discourse - Hubris

Jeff Miller, the Curt Jester, asks the pertinent question in the debate: Is Abortion Health Care, or Is it Not?

Why this is important is that the social engineers believe wholeheartedly that they truly have the power to define the terms of discourse, no one more so than his royal I Wun-ness.

I do not doubt their sincerity. I doubt their epistemology. Hubris comes in all shapes and sizes. None larger than when it rejects the sole source of lucidity - the Catholic Church's faith, reason, and magisterium - or worse, makes it merely one among many cacophonous voices.
