Hi List,
I have to ask, is it right to mess with "mother nature"? From the beginning
of time cosmic events have been part of nature. If "mother nature" thinks
it's time for mankind to end, then do we have the right to stop it?
Natural disasters are part of life, we will never stop earthquakes,
tornados, tidal waves, hurricanes or volcano's, because we can not, should
we stop asteroids just because we can? I say, let nature take it's coarse!
: ) Heck, if it were not for asteroids, we would be watching out for
T-rex's when ever we went out to the store for milk! Mother nature knows
what she's doing, let her do her thing! Any women right activists out there
to give an opinion on this?
Thanks, Tom

With all due respect, I think this is one of the stupidest emails I have
read in a long while.

So, on this basis, all scientific endeavour that has helped progress and
survive should have been stopped in the caves with our ancestors?
The argument presented here is so egregious that I cannot even start to
comment.

What's this got to do with "women right activists"?

bloody hell, it has come to something when intellectual fundamentalists are
in our midst!
