No, this is merely saying that you are basing every- thing you say on WHAT YOU WERE TOLD BY OTHER PEOPLE. That's demonstrably true. You failed, IMO, to make a case that this is in any way 'religious.' > It is the same old tired religios indoctrination techniques > that have been used for millenia.

If I had only half a brain, I might see things your way. :-) > I will not converse with your anymore, you are devoid of > reasoning, you merely have fetish to prove your cult-like > opinion. Dude, I think it's a *smashing* idea that you won't converse with me any more. But really man...I think that anyone reading this who *IS* rational would have to say the person who has the fetish about 'proving' things is YOU. YOU are the one who places his faith in science and tries to use it as a club to declare what's true and what isn't. Me, I'm content with just trusting my own subjective experience and allow- ing others to do the same. :-) By the way, is declaring that you're not going to converse with me any more and then going on to write several more lines of invective an example of the 'rationality' you speak of? :-) ------------------------ Yahoo!
