Yep - I experienced the same thing.  And, I agree, it's likely an underlying 
tenet in most religions.

Well, true but I would imagine that the women in Islamic countries do not all 
believe the same thing as the men...I'm sure that most of them would want to 
vote, drive a car, etc.

Santorum has about as much of a chance of winning the precidency as Saddam
