It is a good thing she wasn't in the field yesterday.

She lost her husband to cancer and was being the good trooper for the last few years, but she has decided to pack it in and move close to the grandchildren. David "A pleasant natural environment is a good - a luxury good, philosophical good, a moral goody-good, a good time for all. Whatever, we want it. If we want something, we should pay for it, with our labor or our cash. We shouldn't beg it, steal it, sit around wishing for it, or euchre the government into taking it by force."--P. J.

I don't disagree at all that Islam is extremely dangerous; I fully agree that the teachings of the Koran directly contribute to countless acts of violence, persecution, and other atrocities. I just don't believe that a wholesale condemnation of Islam is either intellectually justified or practically useful. -- Ernie P. _______________________________________________ Centroids mailing list: [email protected] http://radicalcentrism.com/mailman/listinfo/centroids_radicalcentrism.com Archives at http://radicalcentrism.org/pipermail/centroids_radicalcentrism.com/
