JDG, the campaign against women's rights has lasted, I think, nearly a century. Because we live in a democratic republic, political change requires implementing a legislative/judicial slippery slope to change the jurisprudence and opinions of ordinary Judges and Legislators. For better or for worse, those Judges and Legislator are not going to be changed while relying upon science facts and evidence. Rather it was necessary to use Newspeak to Propagandize the American people to elect Legislators and Get Judges appointed who don't know what science facts and evidence mean - that all people are created (through evolution) equal. _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
