Thick skin
Reader comment on item: How Central Is Muslim Anti-Semitism?
Submitted by Mark Goldstein (United States), Jun 26, 2002 at 13:40
Hello daniel,As thick as you believe your skin to be, you need to cultivate it to become even thicker. If the common reaction of muslim speakers is to attack you, then so be it. Their bias and lack of substance will come through even more clearly.
Don't let them bother you.
Sincerely,
Mark Goldstein
