Okay, I calmly implore you to read the long post regarding my reply to that...
My issue is with Susan McCarthy...what's wrong with her...?

Has this woman gone cuckoo for coco-puffs???
Anyhow, I thought that was funny, or coinkydinkcal you could say,
considering all the effort and thought put into proving that sin doesn't
exist, and the post I just wrote about it today. I'd like to know the
logic of carrying over religious dogma (like conceptual sin) over to a
scientific field. Am I anthropomorphic- not I! "Oh, the Horror! The
Horror!"
Mentioning sin and science together in the same sentence should be a sin!!!
*evil laugh*
