It’s absolutely correct–at least the souls who wrote it were thinking–and hopefully, it will make the reader think (whether for it or against it).

I agree totally.

But do not make the mistake many people do that their literature is “thinking literature”. That’s a elitist attitude and a sure sign of a small mind.

That is very true. Instead of being worried about scoring a touchdown or goal, the thinking souls are breathing new life into our children’s minds, provoking us with a passion that evryone feels.
