# Gays urged to renounce homosexuality. SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Gay activists
hissed, booed & screamed as Rev. Jerry Falwell lectured via satellite to
a group of gays and lesbians about giving up homosexuality. One member of
ACT UP San Francisco threw a blueberry pie at a member of the group that
organized Falwell's speech from Lynchburg VA to about 60 folks in a site
in Golden Gate Park. "Xian bigots out of our city," cried Josh Trenter,
hauled off by cops after allegedly tossing the pie. He and another member
of his gay rights group were cited for battery and released. "God loves
you and so do I," Falwell told the audience. "Just as people can come out
of the closet, so can people choose to come out against a sinful life-
style." http://www.infobeat.com/stories/cgi/story.cgi?id=2561593604-cf1
: Have you come out against left-handedness lately? Is left-handedness a
lifestyle choice? Have you bashed any lefties lately? Did God insist? Is
Xianity a social disease? Should blueberry pies be wasted on Xians? Why?

@ Come One, Come All, Access My PC - 24Link lets you create a web server
on the fly, for free. Anyone can run a website on a home PC, if that
someone is brave (or foolish?) enough to allow the world to snoop
around on his hard drive. And it only takes a minute or two to
set up. http://www.techsightings.com/ts_review/403.html
: Are you brave, foolish, crazy, implanted, controlled? Will your server
take over the world? Will the world take over your server? Are you served?

# Kan. ridiculed for evolution ban. DeSOTO, Kan. (AP) The state Board of
Education got an earful about its move to de-emphasize evolution in Kansas
public schools, including ridicule from student groups from Harvard and
support from the Hare Krishnas. The board, which OK'd the change to state
science testing standards in August, continues to hold public hearings on
its decision. The board was given an Ig Nobel Prize (a spoof of the Nobel
Prize) for scientific achievements that shouldn't be repeated. The board
got support from a Hindu creationist, whose letter of praise was read by
Danavir Swami, president of the Rupa Nuga Vedic College in Kansas City,
Mo. See http://www.infobeat.com/stories/cgi/story.cgi?id=2561593126-1b9
: What's your favorite creationist doctrine? Do backers of various creation
myths fight bitterly for public support? Has your myth won any prizes? What?

@ ROSSLYNTEMPLAR "This list is set up to discuss and theorise about Rosslyn
Chapel, founded during the 14th C. It is an intriguing building with many
links to the Knights Templar and from there to many other esoteric fields.
Discussion on this list is restricted to things relating to Rosslyn, all
aspects of the Knights Templar, and anything relating to these two topics.
(quite a broad remit when you consider that Rosslyn has been given as a
repository of everything from the Ark of the Covenant to Jesus earthly
remains). If you're familiar with the writings of Baigent, Lincoln,
Haisman, Bauval, Hancock, Knight & Lomas or similar authors then that's
what we're about." http://www.onelist.com/subscribe/rosslyntemplar
: Are you esoteric, exoteric, endoteric, psychotic? What are your favorite
Templar conspiracy theories? Do you talk about them? Do they talk about you?

# World population at 6 bln. UNITED NATIONS (AP) Earth's population reached
6 billion, say U.N. demographers, and more than 1 billion youngsters just
entering their fertile years will determine how fast the next milestone is
reached. Even with continuing declines in fertility rates & family size,
the sheer numbers of the largest "youthquake" in history guarantee huge
growth thru 2050, UN gurus say. Most of these more than 1 billion young
people, aged 15 to 24, live in less developed nations where govts struggle
to provide education, jobs, and social services - and they urgently need
reproductive health info and services, the U.N. Population Fund says. See
