a link and a movie

http://www.rediff.com/news/2007/mar/05inter.htm

Interesting.. and I really ought to add links to other arguments with respect to this issue but well.. the thing to note here is that correct logic is not required to arrive at a correct solution - something I have noted for sometime.. and that long conversations about nothing really is not the exclusive domain of grad students!

By the way, saw Amazing Grace, the movie on a beautiful hymn.. was reasonably well-made though a little too saccharine in parts surely for my tongue.. the atrocity of commercial cinema usurping a key period in British parliamentary and world history into a mere 1-D movie rankles a bit.. i sorely missed people like Paine and Burke of those times - guest entries would have sufficed for me.. and pitt and fox became mere caricatures.. fox calling napoleon heroic in parliament and not a murmur of protest - blasphemy.. overall just inspiring enough though a dose of laudanum at times would not be bad.. the issue of course makes it an important movie to watch.. and for all you who believe religion can throw up only crackpots, wilberforce was of the useful kind..
