The cynical flexibility of true believers allows them to utilize technology even when they deny the reality and efficacy of the underlying mechanism.

You know..I can't really get worked up worrying about war. I'm less and less concerned with the possibility of the use of nuclear weapons. The thought of designer bioweapons..though, terrifies me*. It's one of my many tics. While I doubt that these will ever be cooked up by the real nutters...they are the people I would expect to use them. Apocalyptic weapons in the hands of an apocalyptic death cult, the fear is real.
*unless we come up with them first, innoculate ourselves against them...and then weaponize our entire populace as latent hosts while selling the rest of the world "treatment" - then I'm all for it...Now Pay Me!
Sounds like a plan. How many guns you got and when do we make our move?
