    Yes once upon a time education belonged to a few who
    told us what was true, now we either know or we doubt,
    and if we do not embrace equality our current 'security problems'
    will probably not go away. Yes the mob can votr badly, so we better
    start educating them better and stop lying to them.

    Byron!)

    The fact that the MOQist, the Buddhist, the Eastern Mystic, the athiest, the
    Pragmatist, the neopragmatist, the conservative, the liberal, the
    fundamentalist Christian, the taoist, the Protestant, the Catholic, the
    islamist, the physicalist, the pagan, the native American, the communist,
    and the capitalist are light years apart on agreeing on the nature of the
    unfolding of an evolutinary universe and on the existence of a divine
    creator cannot get in the way of all these groups of individuals sitting
    down together to decide what we are going to do about world peace, global
    warming, soil depletion, water shortage, the Aids crisis, etc. These
    questions and the "rightness" of the answers to them can only be determined
    through intersubjective agreement. The best answers will come from
    democratic processes, experimentation, and will change through time and
    place."
