Good point; men like to be made martyrs for their hobby-horses - just look at Servetus. | The one thing self-promoters cannot bear is to be ignored. Attacks and such are welcomed, for they provide a bully pulpit ( ) for them, and provide support for their claims of martyrhood.
Giving them increased opportunities for "Pity poor us, look how we're maligned and mistreated!" is a mistake, ISTM.
