I don't think it is, and here's why: Let's say I made a product where 1 out of every million pretty reliably blew up and killed anywhere from 5-100 people. Do you think I'd get a pass from the consumer products safety commission? Your religion is only as peaceful as its weakest links. And if someone's religion can pretty much be counted on to churn out a killer every, say, year - well I'd say that's not a peaceful religion. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
