Don't be silly. Everyone knows that Optimus Prime died for our sins.

If today you can take a thing like evolution and make it a crime to teach in the public schools, tomorrow you can make it a crime to teach it in the private schools and next year you can make it a crime to teach it to the hustings or in the church. At the next session you may ban books and the newspapers...
Ignorance and fanaticism are ever busy and need feeding. Always feeding and gloating for more. Today it is the public school teachers; tomorrow the private. The next day the preachers and the lecturers, the magazines, the books, the newspapers. After a while, Your Honor, it is the setting of man against man and creed against creed until with flying banners and beating drums we are marching backward to the glorious ages of the sixteenth centry when bigots lighted fagots to burn the men who dared to bring any intelligence and enlightenment and culture to the human mind. ~Clarence Darrow, at the Scopes Monkey Trial, 1925
Politics is supposed to be the second-oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first. ~Ronald Reagan

Now where were we.

Leo-rcc- 'I remember this one from another forum. He supposes that the inistance describes the logic of the Christian cross as it converges in the center or something.'

The statement Ive made previously which I assume your alluding to is that the cross symbol is orientated inwardly towards its centre. Now given the logic of inistance and the ever inward centre stated in the original post and the form of the cross being orientated inwardly towards its centre there is a concurrancy of meaning which they share. Hence the Christian cross and its concurrent logic.

I'm waiting for the punch line...

I think you should ask arcanus, or whatever he's calling himself today, to draw this.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
