Taylor to Richard Carnes] This relates back to the article I just wrote on "convenience". What's wrong with "this hedonistic culture"? (Your perspective.) As long as other human being's rights aren't interfered with, what do you care what other people do with their lives, even if it means their enjoying life (part of the definition of hedonism) while you choose not to? I'd say yours is the kneejerk reaction. -- "When you believe in things that you don't understand, you'll suffer. Superstition ain't the way." Rich Rosen ihnp4!pyuxd!rlr
