Even though you just insulted me, I have a full install floppy set of word
perfect 6 if you want it. By the way, I am very comfortable with my beliefs,

And now for an ignorant and scary quote...Jerry Falwell on the World Trade
Center attacks:
"The abortionists have got to bear some burden for this because God will not be
mocked. And when we destroy 40 million little innocent babies, we made god
mad. I really believe that the pagans and the abortionists and the feminists
and the gays and the lesbians who are actively trying to make that an
alternative lifestyle...the ACLU and People for the American Way..all of them
who tried to secularize America -- I point the finger in their face and say "you
helped this happen".
