  1. I'm amused by the use of "we" in the headline, as if "we" need to make a choice collectively. I'd rather the moralists, judges, and would-be censors let me decide for myself.

  2. Yes, you're right. I hadn't noticed that. I guess I'm helped by the fact that I don't think we should assume that a person who does good work is necessarily a good person as well.
