Subject: Re: Persius Project Date: Mon, 12 Aug 2002 06:12:35 +0000 I knew there was something I had missed. Jud wrote: "It is well known that I consider religion to be the most evil excrescence on the face of the earth." And what is the "appearance" of evil, exactly? And if you can't identify the specific appearance of this, then don't you have to retract your statement above and relegate "evil" to the same trash heap of subjective, anthroporphic human impositions to which you sent purpose and causality (and soon, effectuation)? How can you objectively accuse religion of something that is a figment of your own mind? By doing so, you fall right into the error that you claim religionists commit - preferring nonappearance over appearance. So another consequence of your enlightened appearance over nonappearance standard is the elimination of any real good or evil in the world - in other words, the elimination of any morality. Congratulations.
