Great art can be created by not-great people. Great literature can be created by flawed souls. Great legislation can come from not-great individuals. All forward progress of civilization stops when the process of reaching for new and better is frozen by the fear of error; when moments of clarity are denied based on the struggles that preceded them.
In this great demand to remove Chuck Close portraits from art museums and rethink displaying Picasso's work, remove Confederate monuments, etc., where does it stop? If we are to be consistent, we must next remove all Catholic churches.
