Hi:

You know what _I_ think? I think topics like this are FAR more suited
for the fine Usenet group _talk.origins_. Since when have any of these
types of discussions caused anything but hurt feelings and disruption
here?

Peace,

Now there's a post I can agree with. Let's hope it sinks in.

Yah. But then those that want to hurt feelings and disrupt would feel left
out...

Interestingly enough, it is the intiators of religious discussion who do
most of the hurting by bringing up the subject in an inappropriate
environment, and then trying to defend their belief system.

The people they are hurting, aren't the folks on the other side of the
argument either. It's the folks who would otherwise agree with them, as they
watch their belief system get raked over the coals by folks who have an axe
to grind.
