    Fun read. I thought you misspelled "pncorrect" on purpose, kind of like "pwned".


    “For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?”

    Besides, even if we were to agree on this being a generalisation, the article is still wrong as it is asserting this the norm worldwide. Thats like saying condition x applies to everyone in the world, except anyone who does not live in a certain town in a certain state in a certain country. Its absurd.
    I don't get where you get your reasoning from. The article adresses human as a species, not each individual person. You are still human regardless of what country/town you are from.

    Dammit... but that can be fixed though.
