Here's an anonymous "threat" mailed me this morning from Australia and my
response to it. I'd appreciate someone telling the .edu people in .au what
their posters are sending.

Hey!
If we are just an accident, then what is stopping me killing you? A creator
= morals = correct way to live . BE RATIONAL
The pagan Japanese after Kyote was trashed by its earthquake did not loot.
Christian San Francisco and Los Angeles was a plunder area. How come the
difference? The Japanese, though pagan, have morals too. So do monkeys and
cats and all other creatures, only their morality suits their nature. When
you have 10 to 15 BILLION years of "accidents" and tryouts, the shoe soon fits
its last.
