Hello sailor!

I haven't got a "side" so that buggers that theory....

If I had, would it be double? Perhaps not. Rather flattered that a bloke on the end of a keyboard gives me the odd namecheck, but would be happier if you bought an album.

I reckon many on this thread seem to think there are two sides to this debate. I'm not too sure. Nobody other than pete and (where is) Iona are peddling fantasy as fact, and there are those who try to reason with him / them. Thirdly are those who through various posts are bemused that medieval superstition is alive and kicking.

Perhaps my nautical friend will remember he started the debate by querying whether future generations of western world children will end up in sweat shops if we don't sharpen up education?   Oh and giving the teaching of creationism as the example of what is wrong.

Rather interesting that Jack the Sailor started the questioning and then gets all upset when people dismiss nonsense.
