As long as there are still paper books there is no need to ever go back there

The paper books will be used as a convenient source for heat and cooking food.

[pErvinalia]

equating trust and faith is typically predictable, but still wrong. Why do heads of religious organisations think they are qualified to make rational arguments?

It was an attempt at rational argument? to me that was ex cathedra espounding with some argumentation slipped in for rhetorical reasons.

Good point. What I should have said was "Why do think they are qualified to make intelligent arguments, and pass them off as such?"

If it is possible to fake reason some will try.

In the long term things will right themselves not sure humans can survive another population bottleneck - the fragile ape is ill-equipped for natural survival having lost it's stone chipping culture and the megabeasts to bring down....

If only 1 in 10,000 people survive the mother of all human-made cataclysms, that'll be enough for a few new communities to survive in the long term, the lack of megabeasts notwithstanding.

The greater the adherence to a single religion in a country (as a percentage of population): the higher the birth-rate, the more punitive the penal system, the uglier the babies and the more hairy the women's chests. FACT!

That's no issue if things go well. Religion is a temporary fix and won't last very long once ideology rises from the grave....if this is done right. Consider it part of a Seldon initiative. A little retreat before the next big advance?

But in the meantime, we have to put up with girls with chest-hair like Burt Reynolds? FUCK THAT!!1!

Punctuation is important.

There is a world of difference between:

You are not bisexual like me, I take it.
&
You are not bisexual? Like me. I take it!
