Re: [microsound] war

Yes, you are right.  American religious fundamentalists who declare a
"war of good against evil" and base that war on an 'ancient' book such
as the bible are most dangerous people.  They are not only bad
Christians ignoring the ten commandments of their own religion, but at
core they are manicheans, misguided and corrupt ones.

By the way, get a grip on historical dates -- the great prophet (if you
mean Muhammed with that epithet) certainly did not defeat Neanderthal
man.
