# Eclipse 'invasion' fears over monuments. (BBC) An operation designed to
protect Cornwall's ancient monuments during the solar eclipse has begun
amid fears of an invasion by New Age groups. Pesky pagans are everywhere:
http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/sci/tech/specials/eclipse99/newsid_384000/3
84999.stm
: Does your NewAge cult intend to invade any ancient monuments/megaliths for
the eclipse? Will you perform sacrifices, dance naked, whoop and sing, have
too much fun? Are the rest of us invited? Will you run off any competitors?

# Milk fat knocks out sex diseases.(BBC) A fat found in milk and coconut oil
could offer protection against sexually-transmitted infections including
HIV, herpes and chlamydia. The compound was found to destroy such viruses
and bacteria when dissolved in a gel. An AIDS cure in ice-cream - see
http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/health/newsid_380000/380926.stm
: When AIDS is cured, when herpes and chlamydia are cured, will you have any
excuse not to go on a fuck-fest, having sex as often as you can with as many
partners as are willing? Are STDs artificially imposed social control tools?
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
# Coke scare blamed on mass hysteria. (BBC) Illnesses linked to Coca-Cola in
Belgium may have been largely caused by fear rather than impurities in the
drink: http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/health/newsid_383000/383337.stm
: Would you rather be poisoned intentionally, accidentally, hysterically,
experimentally, tragically, magically? Are mind-control drugs in Pepsi?
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
# Officers having a blast at ATF bomb classes. Only a heartbeat expired
between the last shout of "fire in the hole" and the boom of the first
explosive detonated in the dusty sagebrush landscape. Cops with noisy
toys: http://www.deseretnews.com/dn/view/1,1249,100009491,00.html
: Do federal agents brainwash local police under the guise of 'training'? Do
you fear the complete militarization and takeover of your local cops? When?
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
# Temple Riders cruise the high road. They don't drink or smoke; they carry
extra copies of the Book of Mormon in their saddlebags. But the Temple
Riders are as proud of their big bikes and black leather as any other
motorcycle gang. http://deseretnews.com/dn/view/1,1249,100009490,00.html
: Do you know of any black-leather biker gangs of Buddhists, Taoists, Xian
Scis, Atheists, Unitarians, Sufis, Baha'is, Quakers, Scientologists, Pagans?
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
# Enlightening others, celebrating the past are part of Buddhists' spiritual
journey. Sitting silently, like a meditating monk between the commotion of
the Salt Palace and the Delta Center, is an 87-year-old temple. Like many
of Salt Lake City's sacred spaces, it has provided a refuge for people who
came to Utah seeking freedom. Or even those who just want to get in out of
the sun: http://www.deseretnews.com/dn/view/1,1249,100009205,00.html
: Have you embarked on a spiritual journey? Did you reach your destination?
Was your luggage lost? Was the flight turbulent? Did you crash-land? Where?
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
# Jehovah's Witnesses lose in court. MOSCOW (AP) A Moscow court rejected an
appeal by Jehovah's Witnesses, saying a panel of experts would study the
group's literature and recommend whether it should be banned. Russia's
religion law gives courts the power to ban religious groups found guilty
of inciting hatred or intolerant behavior. But are any churches REALLY
tolerant? http://www.deseretnews.com/dn/view/1,1249,100009355,00.html
: What religions would you like to ban? Does your belief system destroy
families, foster hatred, threaten lives? Is your sect merely annoying? How?
