This was a really thought-provoking blog post – I found it really interesting as a partner piece to your Intervention Report.

I would be interested in your view on whether it is indeed possible (in either the short or long term) to make universities more truly a space for “for safe criticality, and religious freedom”.

Thank you for your comment!

I rewrote this blog post many times and really struggled to communicate my thoughts about the resources as a whole using only 500 words, so ended up having to focus just on the Orr resource as a way to direct my thoughts better. I still don’t think this scratches the surface of what I wanted to say!

I loved reading this piece, thank you for the insightful thoughts!

Thank you so much for this comment!
