[MarshaV]

Keith,

One man's "scientific" theory of evolution is another man's allegory 
and metaphor.  I get this.  It is, it isn't, it's both is and isn't, 
and neither.  Who holds the illusion is an interesting question?  Pragmatic?

The other day I was listening to C-SPAN's Washington Journal.  The 
question was about Obama's choices for his "team".  A man called in 
to state that he felt pleased with Obama's choices.  He made a very 
rational statement.  He then went on to state that Obama should offer 
total commitment to Israel, BECAUSE if we didn't GOD would destroy the world.

Pattern?  Dharma?  Meme?  Not real, not not real?   The West is a 
fucking mess!  (Pardon the appropriate word.)
