<< Those who may have invented the concept of a unique god got to pay for it, or be blessed... or damned >>

Man made God in his own image, and it is, by far, the most successful business in the history of mankind, kinda like selling air.

Sounds like "blessed" to me.

Are Palestinians entitled to rule Jordan?

yahoodi.com

"The fact is that today's Palestinians are immigrants from the surrounding nations! I grew up well knowing the history and origins of today's Palestinians as being from Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Christians from Greece, Muslim Sherkas from Russia, Muslims from Bosnia, and the Jordanians next door. The civil and tribal wars between Yemmenites (from Yemen) and Kessites (from Banu Kais of Saudi Arabia) ... are well known among Palestinians.
"My grandfather, who was a dignitary in Bethlehem, almost lost his life by Abdul Qader Al-Husseni (the leader of the Palestinian revolution) after being accused of selling land to Jews. He used to tell us that his village Beit Sahur (The Shepherds Fields) in Bethlehem County was empty before his father settled in the area with six other families. The town has now grown to 30,000 inhabitants."

- Walid, a Palestinian Arab defector, talking about the recent immigration of Arabs to Palestine.

I don't know... think the Jews have a good claim of "prior art" on monotheism? <g>

What kind of licensing fees on such intellectual property do you think would be appropriate?
