On the contrary, they fear competition much more than direct opposition. That's why the bloodiest religious wars are usually between similar systems. Thus, an opposing mythical symbol is more threatening, provided it's taken seriously -- the attempt to cast it seriously is an attempt to frame an enemy. Actually, the deeper, unspoken threat is that it won't be taken seriously -- providing a precedent for the demotion of all mythical symbols. --=20 Sterling (Chip) Camden | sterling@camdensoftware.com | 2048D/3A978E4F http://camdensoftware.com | http://chipstips.com | http://chipsquips= .com --NMuMz9nt05w80d4+ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (FreeBSD) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJMTIBnAAoJEIpckszW26+RlaIH/io1+wBGVQ7rsPpe1WUsJC9D f9792CYq+3oZKzENk4YeFceehkoUYvyFBG7sphuNlkdrlFtKabu8J8QfCTWpbN8A sd9s7TGLRPKcOBDYLaWo/ojeWTHaCHfttiBvdeiMEoWxM8/tK/YZeAaTeIPJR5uV w2SvnRjG8kanvH2GAqjxyO8mkEDBa5hhkBRiHobxkpinPzrAukh7JcsmCBrjl97R IQ+d3du0qC7zyjq4LQo33NOEzGRpP3Xsa7VpA3YKNTTJ6e4UNX8DKJ5bsc6ld8xF lqUyiOoaFdRh+VoulCcngr2DxozR9Fz1BSUWMYBKw18njYIjvei4+74S9OJgpKQ= =oG1s -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --NMuMz9nt05w80d4+--
