Why would you worry about that? And why do you care so much about it making a lasting contribution to the rest of the world? Furry is bigger than it's ever been and it's still growing. There was an article about how furry isn't an obscure fandom any more and in this year we must have mentioned at least four or five different talk shows or documentaries dealing with furries and there are a number of written articles about the fandom too. The fandom produced it's first movie, recently we got Inkbunny, SoFurry is upgrading itself. FNN and SoFurry both are spreading into new areas by having Android apps. Who cares if people are still reading Kyell Gold? He got some award for his books. Furry is not disappearing in five years and there's no reason to think that.
What there is a contradiction? Based on my definition of what makes someone a fur, "preference for anthropomorphic characters." No god and no free will because there is insufficient evidence to justify such a view. How is freedom of speech a lost cause? And even if it were how is that a contradiction to anything? Yes, furry art appeals to furries, that's because it's furry art. How is having a theme a lack of integrity?
"If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind."
