In this case I meant 'big stick' as in a big discovery about our origins,
like the true age of the earth, or evolution, or the big bang theory. To be
honest, the only kind of person that can be 'hurt' by such increases of
knowledge is the only kind I don't mind offending. :P

But sure. As soon as all strikes religious influence from the national law
books, I'll happily stop carping on about how bible law is used to lock
people up for life.

Coolicious. I'm all for increase of knowledge, its another reason I'm
a member. I just hope we're all open minded on whatever we discover.
Whether it supports current theories or opens up all new ones.

Just hoping that we could all get along here, but I do undestand.

Now back to the wonderful subject we're all here for and do forgive
the slight interruption.
