Just like the criminal beside Jesus on the cross in Luke 23:39,40. When this kind of thing happens, the need of God after the result of sin is shown most evidently, yet you still spit in the face of the only one who can take the pain and despair of this earth away, and in that are blind to the truth.

"morons" are usually the "other ones" if you get my drift.

Agreed 100%.

It's because they realize that if they have any more offspring the kids will just starve. There hasn't been > one for two million years in fact, until our culture decided to > wage war on the community of life and convert all biomass into > *human* biomass. When you're talking about "we" do you mean the West, or do you mean China, India and Indonesia. Last time I checked, these three countries made up about 1/2 of the world's population. > When the founding fathers arrived in the new world, did they > find a continent swarming with people? Hmm? No, because about 100 years before colonization of North America began in earnest, most (90%) of the indigenous inhabitants were decimated by war, plague, smallpox and starvation. When the first explorers of the new world arrived in Mexico and Peru, they found vast civilizations which, except for lack of metallurgy and gunpowder, were just as sophisticated as anything in the old world. > Please use the correct terms when describing a problem with our > culture. It's not like humanity is innately flawed as mother > culture would have you believe, no. Our culture has a weird > vision of how man ought to live and forces it down the throats > of other cultures whereever it meets them. I'd argue that indigenous folks are only too happy to have greater access to food, medicine, and above all, technological advantages by which to dominate their rivals on the other side of the river. Hunting and gathering peoples in the historical era have only existed where they have been marginalized and have nowhere else to go. In any places where even the most rudimentary agriculture is possible, it is utilized to increase the local carrying capacity. This drive to reproduce to the absolute limits of sustainability is much older than any recent developments that you might categorize as "modern culture". > We are the takers of Borg; you will be cultivated.

Krimhild ? Can't say I've ever heard that name before, is that a "proper name" or a "pet name" ? Beers and cheers (uncle) Goy http://www.theuspits.com "A man is only as old as the woman he feels........" --Groucho Marx--

LOL! Actually, Tristan was named after the guy in the James Herriot TV series (I don't know the original name, I think it was "all creatures large and small"). Nothing to do with Wagner; in fact, I hate Opera with a passion ;-) uwe -- mail replies to Uwe at schuerkamp dot de ( yahoo address is spambox) Uwe Schuerkamp //////////////////////////// http://www.schuerkamp.de/ Herford, Germany \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ (52.0N/8.5E) GPG Fingerprint: 2E 13 20 22 9A 3F 63 7F 67 6F E9 B1 A8 36 A4 61
