On a separate track, a bookie may want to set a price for one group or the other being correct, but that's another issue ..also interesting. [/ QUOTE ] Why would a bookie set a price on an issue if the results could never be observed? |

Re: The Better Intelligence-Religion Correlation
[ QUOTE ]
Dogma is the enemy of human freedom... The human spirit glows from that small inner light of doubt whether we are right, while those who believe with COMPLETE CERTAINTY that they possess the right are dark inside and darken the world outside with cruelty, pain, and injustice... To diminish the danger that ideology will deteriorate into dogma, and to protect the free, open ,questing, and creative mind of man, as well as to allow for change, no ideology should be more specific than that of America's founding fathers: "For the general welfare." Niels Bohr, the great atomic physicist, admirably stated the civilized position on dogmatism: "Every sentence I utter must be understood not as an affirmation, but as a question." [/ QUOTE ] -Saul D. Alinsky |
