okay, and here for the final word:

if some sort of diety was truly all powerful, all mighty, able to create the universe, our planet...all living species... do you really think it'd give a flying fu<k wether we used its name "in vain"? nope, didn't think so.

I just watched a show on the mayans.
After the Spanish conquest, the catholic priests humiliated the mayans for their beliefs, and destroyed their religious symbols.
Religion is an insult to human dignity. With or without it, you'd have good people doing good things and evil people doing bad things, but for good people to do bad things, it takes religion - Steven Weinberg.

Yeah, and religious zealots destroyed the library at Alexandria too.

If archaeologists had time machines, a lot of old Christian leaders would get throttled.

Ticking sound coming from a .pkg package? Don't let the .bom go off! Inspect it first with Pacifist. Macworld - five mice!
