People who have been taught all their lives to accept indoctrination and believe in certain dogmas regardless of the evidence will be prone to do the same later on in whatever area of life.<br /><Infidel753http://infidel753.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173973315363181140.post-57235175419527203632009-08-16T21:41:33.286-04:002009-08-16T21:41:33.286-04:00No, anon is a woman I went to this morning, she ha...No, anon is a woman I went to this morning, she had a post up degrading the reform so I invited her to my blog to read the truth.
