(-; WOW way too accurate to be too funny. Even if you don't believe in creation, the broad fundamental scope of reference is very insightful.

How sadly true.

"We" is too general a term, for only a few are interested in either. Getting rid of 'the other guys' has been going on since time memorial. The powers-that-be want 'us' to think it is 'we' that are doing these things, when in fact it is 'them.'
