"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Sorry, who is NGT? And who else is in the photo, what was the occasion? (Sorry, I always enjoy the back story.)

Love the photos I've seen from here. Has to have been the inspiration for the Avatar movie. I thought I'd heard they were building a dam in China which would flood it though. (Sure hope I'm wrong.)
