Default Interesting question

Hello, gang

Now that one Supreme Court justice is stating something to the effect that
separation of Church and State is not totally possible (he is part of the
Bush agenda) ... and now that the U.S. Parks system is being sued for not
carrying a book that states that the Grand Canyon cannot be more than 4,000
years old, I have a couple of questions regarding marriage and other
musings.

1). Since Adam and Eve started this, where did the 3rd generation come
from? Um ... does this mean we can marry one of our parents or a brother or
sister?

2). Which religious organization is to rule us? Will it be the Mormons?
Does this mean that polygamy will once again be legal? Or perhaps the
Catholics, since they are not happy with divorce or abortion.

3). How much will religion play in our new found country? Will we be
*extremely* religious, such as Iran and most of the Middle East? Say, I
never thought ... perhaps the Muslims should rule (go back to question 2)
or, then again, the Jewish (refer again to question 2).

4). Will any other religions be permitted?

5). Now that we will have a *very* religious country (the fact that pi is
now equal to three, exactly, will not matter - we've sent manufacturing to
China and outsourced IT to India. I'm sure we can find someone else to do
our engineering), how do we fit in with the nuclear powers (Israel, Russia,
North Korea, England, and soon to be nuclear powers - religious
organizations such as Iran. Oh, I forgot the Hindus. Better add India.)?
Could this partially be behind Russia's desire to build up their nuclear
arsenal to be the most powerful in the world? I remember someone in the
paper blaming it on the missile defense system of the U.S. which was caused
by the Democrats. LOL - my error; here I thought "Star Wars" was Ronald
Ray-Guns idea.

Suddenly, this makes the question of linear (or non-linear) amplifiers
pretty trivial, in my mind )


Best regards from Rochester, NY
Jim

No, but it -does- mean that we are all the products of inbreeding.


2). Which religious organization is to rule us? Will it be the Mormons?

Well, if the Catholics ruled we wouldn't need prisons -- the sentence
for a crime would be to play with some beads, bark a few hail-mary's,
then get released back onto the streets. But election 2004 suggests
that the ruling religion would likely be a faction of conservative,
bible-thumping, holier-than-thou WASPs. Forget any ideas of 'ethnic
cleansing' or 'gay bashing', this is the 21st Century: can you say
"Moral Makeover"?


3). How much will religion play in our new found country? Will we be
*extremely* religious, such as Iran and most of the Middle East? Say, I

or, then again, the Jewish (refer again to question 2).



"Religion is the opium of the masses". And judging by the huge numbers
of people in this country who have some sort of drug dependency (both
prescription -and- illicit drugs), religion may be forced to share the
power with the drug dealers and pharmaceutical corporations.


4). Will any other religions be permitted?



Sure, just like they were during the Spanish Inquisition.


5). Now that we will have a *very* religious country (the fact that pi is
now equal to three, exactly, will not matter - we've sent manufacturing to
China and outsourced IT to India. I'm sure we can find someone else to do
our engineering),



Isn't it ironic how an irrational number can foster irrational ideas?

Which one was it.... "Beneath the Planet of the Apes"? Where the
mutants worshipped the doomsday bomb?

What "question"? If you use a linear in the name of God then it will
be legal, of course! Remember how Pride tried to 'excuse' their amps
from the law by claiming they were made by the handicapped? Heck, I'm
suprised someone hasn't tried to market a line of "Patriot Amps"......

The Rebel flag wasn't the smash hit some had hoped it would be either.
Although it remains to be very popular on the Nascar circuit, so go figure.

Anyone remember the Eagle amp? It has the same vaneer'd bird and such
on its faceplate. I have one of those..actually i have the Mark IV and
the amp. I don't use either anymore, and it took me a while to get the
ping to my liking, but that's nostalgia city right there.

I was called a pinko-commie-fag the last time I trotted out a Marx quote.
Perhaps I should have stuck with Engals? ;-)
