# Now: evidence that male hormones in the womb affect sexual orientation.
Higher levels of male hormones in the womb can create a greater than
normal tendency for males and females to develop homosexual orientation.
Not just a choice: http://www.eurekalert.org/releases/ucbe-bpf032900.html
: Do your deities consider homosexuality an evil? Is homosexuality a natural
biological phenomenon? Did your deities thus design some humans to be evil?
Are your deities worth worshipping, if they play such tricks upon humanity?
# DIVINE POLITICAL INTERVENTION - Virgin Mary appears in Elian's mirror?

circling stars many light years from Earth. EARTH FIRST! We'll strip-mine
the rest of the solar system, galaxy, universe, as soon as we get there!
http://news.bbc.co.uk/hi/english/sci/tech/newsid_695000/695176.stm

# PLANET HUNTERS ON SAFARI. (Nasa) With the discovery of extrasolar planets
smaller than Saturn, astronomers are increasingly convinced that other
stars harbor planetary systems like our own. Opportunities for Real Estate
sales abound: http://www.spacescience.com/headlines/y2000/ast30mar_1.htm
: Have you found/lost/bought/sold/fixed/ruined any planets lately? How many
planets have you laid claim to? Do their residents dispute your ownership?
D'ya have to brutally suppress the upstarts? Do the Reptilioids help you?

# Norway Muslims, atheists win rights. OSLO(AP) Muslims & atheists have for
the first time been granted the right to proclaim their faith - or lack of
it - from loudspeakers over Oslo. The catch: they have to do it quietly.
The calls must not exceed three minutes or a noise level of 60 decibels -
the level of normal conversation which might not be heard over city traf-
fic. http://www.infobeat.com/stories/cgi/story.cgi?id=2565289077-c29
@ HAVE A FRIENDLY DISCUSSION: news:soc.religion.quaker
@ WAKE UP WITH ZEN: news:alt.zen - TAKE IT OFF: news:rec.nude
@ LEARN SECRETS WITHOUT BEING SUED: news:alt.religion.scientology
: Should all (non)belief systems have equal political/economic/artistic/sex
rights? Is your belief system noisy? Do you bother the neighbors? Do they
retaliate against you, tormenting you, persecuting you, ignoring you? Why?
# US official fears Islamic terror - not bothered by atheists, Pagans, pan-
theists, Discordians, nudists, Churches of Subgenius/Otters/Satan/Barfing-
Yak. Yet. http://www.infobeat.com/stories/cgi/story.cgi?id=2565286811-fb6
# Jordan Indicts 28 of Bin Laden's Followers in Alleged Terror Plot; Western

# Severe winds sweep Chinese cities - Falun Gong blamed for invoking mystic
curse. BEIJING (AP) Stronger than usual seasonal winds have swept through
Beijing and other parts of northern China this spring, killing at least 16
people and injuring dozens more. Anti-cult authorities denounce demonic
practice: http://www.infobeat.com/stories/cgi/story.cgi?id=2565286740-063
# Volcano threatens Japanese towns - Earth gods not appeased by human sacri-
fice. TOKYO (AP) Three towns near a volcano that was in danger of erupting
in northern Japan ordered the evacuation of 8,000 people as increasingly
powerful tremors shook the region Wednesday. Tossing virgins into firepits
failed: http://www.infobeat.com/stories/cgi/story.cgi?id=2565283330-3fb
: Has your belief system caused/prevented any (un)natural disasters lately?
Have you sacrificed any virgins/meditators/politicos to restore balance to
the (un)natural forces? Have cosmic energies invaded your brain? D'ya mind?

Suicides: http://www.space.com/science/iridium_sound_000328.html
@ Zero was once feared as a sign of sorcery and the devil. For something
that stands for nothing, that surely is something. Or something. Or...
whatever... http://www.janmag.com/nonfiction/nothingthatis.html

@ WOULD ANYONE SWALLOW GENE THERAPY FOR TOOTH DECAY? Researchers are devel-
oping genetically-altered bacteria to squirt in people's mouths to combat
tooth decay. But when we still have people raising alarms over fluoridated
water & genetically modified food, I just don't see people going for this.

# Panel mulls biotech food labels - as effective as cigarette warnings?
http://www.infobeat.com/stories/cgi/story.cgi?id=2565270739-c28
# SPAZ MUTANTS! http://www.eurekalert.org/releases/uomi-gma032900.html
: What are y'r most/least favorite biomedical technologies? Will you try any
treatment once? Is fluoridation a Communist/Reptilioid/Illuminati plot? Have
you waged war against biomedical conspirators? Are your mouth/brains rotten?
@ 'ORGANIC' AND 'IRRADIATED' NOT MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE. It is ridiculous
to think that organic food that is irradiated can no longer be called
organic food, under new regulations from the USDA. Irradiation can
make food safer to eat while preserving its freshness and flavor.
