Really. I think you will find that many theists are quite intelligent. Some are even extremely intelligent.

Atheism offers them nothing at the present. People need structure. People need leadership.

Yes I agree...they desperately need the small mindedness of a fence and boundaries and the concept that "someone is looking after me and mummy / daddy will pay the bill when it falls due"

You are right...atheism Offers NOTHING to address these feelings of inadequacies or ineptitude so it is vehemently attacked by theists. A simple case of school yard bullying I am thinking. Nothing more

Right, ok, you seem to have it all worked out. I will leave you with it.

But. You say what are they fighting for. What are you fighting for. You are playing the same game.

I passed all tests. I was under the impression that most people could read the scrambled text, not just 55 out of 100.

Anywho, I wrote a small php script years back when I first found out about it, and it can scramble any paragraph according to the rules (every first and last letter is preserved).

Well yeah, it wouldn't. The algorithm demands that the first and last letter of each word remain in the same place, so for words of 3 characters and less, nothing will happen. The only other word there is the 4 letter "boot", which can only be scrambled to "boot" (switching the o's around), thus it wouldn't have any effect.

Sorry?? ib.ub.me......you speaking to me??

I am fighting to be me...nothing more than the best that I can be. I have no need for leadership in this area.
