I have no idea what you mean by that. I am an idiot, remember.

Here is the essence of the Nazi premise: First deleterious elements of society must be scientifically identified. Second they must be suppressed. And third they must be excised from the collective body of humanity.

So science is responisble for what the Nazis did and the Neo-Nazis do today?

In the best interests of Unithreadianism I offer you this:

Science and religion are the flip sides of the same coin. The problem ensues when the two magically combine- ultimately resulting in the Borg principle. Better to embrace a bit of true Luddite skepticism: 'Consider everything, believe nothing.'

I consider everything and believe in facts. And love. Works for me.

Once more, let me repeat (and this is becoming a tedious exercise) this is not about you, Pam.

Who the hell are you talking to? And if you really do not want people to comment on your posts, why don't you just start a blog without a comment section? Seems to me this is all about YOU wanting to hear your own voice. And your own voice only.

Careful now, Pam, I don't think people on our level are allowed to comment on this thread filled with the thoughts of a genius.

Hahahahah.... my Dad was genious IQ and so is my oldest brother, BE is a just a wannabe ;)

When my Dad and Brother explained things to me, they always made sense. A true genious is a good teacher.

At least I will happily admit I am not a genious, by any means. Sometimes I think I am much better off this way.
