I was merely pointing out that the topic could easily become a heated discussion, and I would prefer it if it were not sent to the Piclist. I obtain world and political information elswhere. I understand that the piclist is more a community of people with a particular common interest, but it would be nice if everyone was more considerate of others /opinions/ and emailed them privately instead of berating them in public. I understand you have strong feelings about this subject and many others, but surely you realize that you offend others when you state opinions and speculation as fact, and on subjects which are so inflamatory. I'm not calling for censorship, but for consideration for each other's opinions and values. You and I both know that some things (like the PIC) have facts which can be proven to the satisfaction of all concerned. But political/religious/moral statements and debates can rarely be proven to the satisfaction of all - and as such have no place on this list (in my very humble *and* perfect opinion, thank you very much ;-> ) I'm sorry if my wording confused you. Perhaps this message has made things more clear. -Adam Andy Kunz wrote: > > At 12:32 PM 10/7/1999 -0400, you wrote: > >Ok, this is getting political.
