Dear Mark H. (& Platt),
You wrote 16 Jun 2004 21:20:53 -0700:
'Rushton was reprimanded by his school, the University of Western Ontario,
for accosting people in a local shopping mall and asking them how big their
penises were and how far they could ejaculate. "A zoologist doesn't need
permission to study squirrels in his backyard," he groused (Rolling Stone,
10/20/94).'
This is really funny! Especially after you, Mark, suggested 21 May 2004
20:33:31 -0700:
'Go to a good-sized mall in any American city, and stop 100 people at
random. Ask them if they believe that Jesus Christ was the son of God, put
on earth by God to be crucified for their sins, so that they may have a
clean slate, live a good Christian life, then be rewarded with eternal bliss
in heaven. I bet that AT LEAST 59 of them will say yes. If they can believe
this, why not all of Revelations?'
Did you get your idea to suggest this from your study of Rushton or is it a
general habit of Americans to poll each other in shopping malls? DOES one
need permission to study homo sapiens in American shopping malls?
I must confess that I wouldn't be able to tell how big my penis is and how
far I can ejaculate. I only measured my penis once, some 30 years ago, when
I had just discovered that its length differs in different circumstances.
(Did Rushton mention specific circumstances in which his study objects
should measure theirs?)
As Platt is so intent on bringing back conversations to the MoQ:
Platt, does obsession with penis length and knowing it by heart count as an
indication of 'being biological' in your interpretation of the MoQ? (-;
If so, maybe you should ask Rushton for his poll data! Maybe the number of
e-mails one gets nowadays offering methods for penis enlargement is then
also an indication for the sorry state of homo sapiens?!
With friendly greetings,
Wim
