    Hi Johnny,

    Oops, on second thought, I DO need to say something about the ol'
    FREE WILL and DETERMINISM schism.

    Although it may be true that we have no free will, NO ONE believes
    it, not even you. We can debate this, if you like. Or you may
    choose not to.

    Best,
    Mark (msh)

Is someone still a little sore that someone else isn't reading
Chomsky's "Deterring Democracy"?  ;-)
hey, how about "Manufacturing Consent", have you read that one?  That
one I really like for what it says, indirectly, about free will, 
which happens to be what we were talking about.  And the more we 
promote this idea of "free will" the more we play into the hands of 
the manufacturers of consent.  The only way to protect ourselves, and
other people, from brainwashing and manufactured consent, is to
recognize that there is no such thing as free will, that people's
wills, and their consent, are not sovereign, they are fully under the
control of the influences surrounding them, ie, Morality.  So not 
only must we be conscious of our place in morality, we should be 
aware of how we impact morality as it will affect other people.  We 
can't live as islands or think that other people live as islands.
