"hand at this writing bit" Very Interesting Hello Mohan: very interesting indeed. Will have to look for these guys in the local library/Barnes and Noble. Meanwhile... from The Times of London.... As with those Catholic shrines, employing state-of-the-art lighting to impart a magic glow to the halo of the iconic figure before whom grown men and women prostrate themselves and whimper for miracles - or those Orthodox Jews who bend modern technology to the challenge of living modern lives, while observing myths about the Sabbath - I am at a loss to see how they can place their trust in both. Science in the service of anti-science. Wisdom in the service of ignorance. Reality in the service of illusion. Ponder the howling contradiction inherent in the promotion of superstition by means of the very knowhow whose theoretical structure blows away the foundations of superstition. Think of the cool minds behind the invention of the nuclear bombs with which Indian Hindus and Pakistani Muslims now confront each other.
