Subject: RE: BS: The Jena 6 Controversy
"I also don't have much faith in the religion rigamarole, but people do have an inherent need to Believe in something. Some folks who go to church really DO believe and making them give up their faith or sneak around to worship would be cruel."


             Yeah, I agree. Prohibition didn't work, neither did the war on drugs.
             The one problem in all of it that I see as the most freightening, is something Bobert alluded to earlier. If the people who go to church reproduce at a rate higher than the general population, and assuming that they will have to reach the age of somewhere around 50 before that are mature enough to actually figure out what's really going on. We'll have a huge population of people who might never figure it out until the whole thing's over.
