John, <thanks for showing me your prejudice enjoyed your qcom posts but cannot take these kinds of posts.. ignore. you should start to show respect for various beliefs. > Why should I? Islamic Jihad wants me dead! Moslems want me subjugated. Christians want to impose their superstitions on me and do so. Do you respect David Koresh's beliefs? How about Osama's? How about Jerry Falwell's? How about Heaven's Gate's? How about Adolf's? Mao's? I'm sure I've found some beliefs you find unworthy of respect. Notice the apostrophe's in which are lurking d'evil details. Prejudice is giving judgment before the evidence. I've got the evidence, so it's judice, not pre judice. Christians and Moslems don't respect my views. Heck, Christians would have burned me at the stake a while ago as a heretic and Moslems still would kill me if they could - they are planning infidel demise, Islamic Jihad and global domination. You must admit it's an unlikely story that Mary got pregnant supernaturally. If one of my daughters gave me that story I'd question it. On the other hand, the second coming is well overdue and Armageddon is not all that far from Baghdad, so maybe it's time to head back up the mountain again to wait for the rapture. If DNA testing had been available a couple of millennia ago, there could have been a LOT of squabbling and murdering avoided. Jesus would have been found to be just a local bloke. It's unnerving that USA foreign policy is led by a bloke who prays for divine guidance on who has got WMDs and who needs a pre-emptive strike next. Mqurice PS: I suppose it's possible that Jesus was an autoclone. A weak-walled egg just autocloned in a miracle. Perhaps replication just got underway all by itself, same as they do with cloning Dolly etc. Maybe even via quantum tunnelling from wherever the Big Bloke is hanging out. I certainly can't prove that's not what happened. If he can do that, he can certainly do something equally tricky to show me that I've got it wrong. If he's not interested, then that's up to him [or her - how come the Big Guy is always a bloke?]
