Regarding Han's quote: > Imperialists could claim: "As Jesus did not use metric, the world should not > use metric."
I've heard this variation: If God had wanted us to use the metric system, there would have been 10 disciples (instead of 12). to which I reply: If God had wanted us to use Ye Olde English units there would have been 5280 commandments (instead of 10). Han also mentioned: > ...the condemnations of false weight and measure in the Bible ... Here is the reference for that quote (or at least the one with which I am most familiar): Deuteronomy 25:14a "You shall not have in your house two kinds of measures ..." I use this to suggest that we should not have two different measuring systems in the US or in the world. Regards, Bill Hooper ============ Keep It Simple! Make It Metric! ============
