[Marxism] Thanksgiving
"The birth of tolerance in the Low Countries changed history. It made
Holland the center of publishing, where Galileo and Hobbes printed
their books free of censorship. The Dutch provided haven to exiled
English royalty and peasants from across Europe who fled war and
repression. It's often forgotten that the English Pilgrims, before
taking a flyer on America, went to Holland in their search for
religious freedom. They found it and then left for the same reason:
they feared that amid the diversity of Holland their children would
stray, and so opted to carve out an isolationist settlement in the
New World" (Russell Shorto "The Un-Pilgrims,"
<http://www.nytimes.com/2003/11/27/opinion/27SHOR.html>).
