This is kind of a touchstone for these disinformation based organisations. They created institutes specifically to push some agenda. We've had tobacco, big oil, and of course the anti-evolution lot, all with their own "think tanks" and "institutes". Personally I reckon they got the idea from L Ron Hubbard, who once got into a conversation with fellow science fiction writers - I forget who, say James Blish and John W Campbell Jr, for the sake of argument - and they all proposed crazy ideas about how one could create a science based religion. "We could have little devices that let people measure their state of spiritual health!" they chortled, imagining this was just one of those games SF writers love to indulge in - little realising that Hubbard was making mental notes of everything they said. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
