But perhaps they will come out of savagery and ignorance and eventually find they way into the modern world (rather than attempting to destroy same). One can only hope, for their sakes and ours." That's how I feel about people growing up in Texas under the radical Christian fundamentalists. All fundamentalist could stand to read Richard Dawkin's book the God Delusion IMO.

Wolf the big difference is empirical scientific hypotheses are testable under double blind conditions where as religious beliefs are not. So are you schilling for Christian fundamentalists who I see as little different than Iranian Muslim fundamentalists as in reverend "god hates fags" Phelps: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fred_Phelps I would no more want to live in his town than I would want to live under the Mullahs.

Wolf said: "The trick to not being a wage slave is simple. Save a minimum of 10% of your income, preferably 20%. Invest in a broad based mutual fund (401K or IRA are optimal) and wait a few decades.

If you talk about a "broad based mutual fund (401K or IRA are optimal) " I don't have to "make up stories" I KNOW that you are a yuppie, I KNOW that the MAJORITY of people working crappy service jobs don't speak that way, the sad thing is you are too far out of touch to even know that, sort of like Bush I being dumbfounded by a supermarket scanner. No peace without justice I hope you have nightmares of hungry homeless children ASSHOLE!!!!!

"Some fraction" equals more than a third including the homeless, "discouraged workers," and the increasing number of service workers as the U.S. de-industrializes under the shock therapy of corporate globalization. Again Wolf (good name for you BTW) your dirty secret is that you don't care as long as you have yours. Well I say a pox on your house for an attitude of not caring that so many millions suffer both here in the U.S. and in the third world because of the policies you advocate.
