I concur absolutely, and you could add a lot to your list of what these primitives do and are prepared to do; like for example, persecution of homosexuals by depriving them of equal rights- keeping and making half the population of the world subservient to the other half, and I'm talking about women, and i have fundamentalist Christians in mind, having been approached by one the other day, who seemed proud of playing second fiddle to men, by allowing them to make all the important decisions. I wouldn't say she had been brainwashed, we tend to brainwash ourselves, owing to some sort of personality flaw we are born with. I'm bound to say that I do have a certain amount of sympathy with the Chinese government curtailing religious freedom; God, imagine what all the different religious factions, allowed to run amok could do to an already messed up and unjust society. I should say that in no way am I contradicting my belief that religious study can be a good language learning tool. It might not do the weak-minded much good in other ways but it can improve your language skills....The old and the New Testament stories concocted by Hebrew dissidents away with the fairies on magic mushroom may be stuff and nonsense, however, exceedingly interesting. Well said, Sam Mig. cheers&beers.
