Robert cited a story about the 10 Commandments traveling exhibit.

"The monument stood as a potent symbol of their hopes for changing the 
course of the nation."


Point well made, Robert. You gotta wonder about these folks. Bush is in 
office, GOP Congresspeople heavily indebted to the fundamentalists rule 
the legislature, and the federal courts and the Supreme Court are packed 
with conservatives...AND STILL they have a need to "change the course of 
the nation."

On the other hand, I have yet to read anything remotely as silly as the 
section in the teachings of Ayatoleh Khomenei, as recounted in _Reading 
Lolita in Tehran_, concerning the proper conditions for devout Muslim 
men to have sex with chickens.

Wondering if their chickens died too,
Eric

PS: Okay, Marlena, I'll finish the Jesus the Pirate novel.
