The Wikipedia article on him has another great quote:
"The whole thing goes back to myths which, though they may have a kernel
of truth, are untrue. Why then should the Jewish myth be true and the
Indian and Egyptian myths not be true?"
Here's a definition of science that I gave in the comment section on a >recent podcast of Professor Bart Ehrman's called "Three 'Myths' Atheists >Believe":
"Scientific truth is contingent truth, testable & correctable, with >falsifiability being a necessary, but not sufficient, condition for an >observational and/or experimental datum that can be advanced for or
against the predictions of a scientific model."
Comments? (Other than JTEM, Dale or Dr. Andrew.)

Anything accepted as fact requires supporting evidence to
insure it is not myth, error, lies, or fiction.

Every person in the US is here either
legally or illegally. Those that are
here illegally should be afraid.
Be very afraid. It does not matter
how long you have been here. It does
not matter why you are here. It does not
matter what you have done legally while you
were here. It does not matter what any
relative may have done while you were here.
It only matters that you are here illegally.
It may take a day, a week, a year, or longer
but we will find you and we will deport you.
Be prepared.
Deport them all.
Due process:
Q. Are you here legally? If so, where is
the documentation to establish that?
All politicians are trained to lie
and make those lies sound like
the truth. They start with the biggest
lie of all: Politicians are public
servants.
Some of the Republican positions I find disgusting
and abhorrent.
Most of the Democratic positions I find terrifying.
I support:
A Constitional Amendment establishing
the Freedom of Choice.
The elimination of public expression,
display or support of religion or
religious positions.
