denman - have you in mind
The bottom line is....that with all the so called bagge that you say we are saddled with.....we seem to be doing ok....in fact statistics will show that we excel in the sciences...in literature...in the arts......we contribute to mankind totally out of our proportion to our numbers (perhaps that's what pisses you off?) in every field imaginable....with the exception of sport.....(although I reckon even Thorpie is gonna have trouble beating Mark Spitz's standing record of 7 golds at the one Olympic games....remember ..the one that was interrupted by the PLO...Arafat's mob?)
How do we accomplish that, if we are backward.....believe in stupid religion....in a god...etc etc.....
Maybe you oughta try being so backward for a change?
