During my careless youth, my class was studying the Battle of Salamis and our teacher, a crustily amusing old fellow said,

Gentlemen, if the Greeks had lost
The Battle of Salamis,
there would be no such thing as night baseball!

Thank you Jenny, for helping me to finally understand the full implications of that remark

What was this comment that US Church group gave Nut Job the “Dove of Peace” medal? Can you explain what that was about?

I am really glad to see support of women’s freedom of choice in life affairs. I am not sure that the antidote to radical expansionist Islam, is an equally expansionist Christianity. From our own European history our founding fathers realized the dangers of combining religion and government. It was the knowledge of the terrible wars and death tolls following Martin Luther’s protest, that convinced our early settlers to leave religion out of politics. Now the Muslims are discovering the horrors of this same lack of tolerance that ravaged Europe for several centuries.

Perhaps the wisest course is to value rational thought and an understanding of science, and encourage Muslims to return to a respect for science that once made them important. Of course, during their most successful period, Western women were in much the same condition Muslim women were and are. Perhaps we should be glad they subjugate their women, as they are thus throwing away half their potential for modern success and prosperity. We on the other hand are able to tap the abilities of all our adult population.
