  15. Re:We Impress Me on Hubble Space Telescope Detects Ring of Dark Matter · · Score: 4, Insightful

    "Has science always been this inexorable in it's progress?"

    I don't beleive so. My take on it:

    Timely communication over wide areas has started the 'inexonerable progress'. Telegraph, railroads, telephones, 2-way radio,and now the internet have boosted progress dramatically as each were implemented.

    I may be wrong, but the concept you seem to be looking for is 'singularity'. It's happening quicker as time goes- like a snowball rolling downhill, it may not reach the bottom of the hill (true singularity), but it's headed that way.

    "....bathe a stray tom cat."

    Try a window screen. As long as the screen itself is not resting on a solid surface (ie: up on small blocks) this works most of the time. The theory is that the cat will cling to the screen and allow you to bathe, examine, draw blood, admin meds, etc. Works amazingly well!

  23. A little clarification needed here... on Surprise Arrest For Online Scientology Critic · · Score: 1

    1. "Masses in the ...latin...of its time?"

          Of it's time? Huh? The reason I left the RC Church when I was 8 years old (our parents decided we could have some choice about religion at that age) was because the latin of it's time in Midwest USA was PIG LATIN- not even close to what that dude in the robes and funny hat was rattling off. I don't remember exactly when mass was performed in English (sometime in the 70's maybe?) but in the late 60's it was stiil done in a 'foreign' language that the biggest majority of USA population did not understand.

    2. "Not letting the illiterate peasants paw through a hand copied book, probably the only one that priest would ever get to make or have made?"

    a. I'll agree that this started this way, but even after Gutenberg's printing press was developed in 1450, that should have ended that. But instead, the theme seems to be 'keep the peasants ignorant so we can keep them under control'. The nobility and especially the crowns of that time were also part of the church hierarchy. (hint: this is one of the main reasons for seperation of Church and State in the USA)

    b. Keeping the 'unwashed masses' ignorant of just what was in the bible enabled the Church/State to 'fine tune' and 'tweak' the messages to further their powerbase and financial base.

    3. "Church leaders chosen by the church from its educated and learned?"

    Church leaders chosen by the Church/State from it's educated supporters? Tere, fixed that for you.
