Ludicrous. Both of the following depictions are cold and unpleasant. There are very few portions od the descriptions that a calm and logical person on EITHER side could call untrue. Especially a truly honest member of the CC would sigh and admit that my description is accurate... calling it sad, but "God's will".
I know because I have used similar paraphrasings in the past and they were ACCEPTED. Again, this portrayal of these two groups is fair. --- JDG <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > At 10:02 AM 7/2/2004 -0700 Davd Brin wrote: > >Putting aside arguments over methods, many of the > >participants in MoveOn want to see a touchy-feely > >future in which all children are given free food > and > >education and the Earth is safe for dolphins and > apes. > >People will be careful not to hurt each others > >feelings by saying unkind things.
