It's good to know the Muwateen have their priorities straight. They may as well have been robots, for all their inflexibility. Dawkins should have a go at this one.

The Oblivio-Dad (Rusty Yates) was on Oprah today, live no less. (Never seen her go live.) She of course asked him why they had another child after Dr Starbranch warned them about it and he said "We love children". Yeah.......but he didn't love his wife enough to space out the kids so she wasn't overwhelmed with responsibilities and subsequently cratered into a pitiful zombie ilke shell of the vibrant woman she once was.

Reminds me of the passage from Leviticus that Carl Sagan quoted in Cosmos. "I set before you death and life, therefore choose life, that thou and thy seed may live". As far as I am concerned, Rusty Yates gave five people life directly, and gave six people death indirectly, all with the same organ ---- his penis.
