h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Phew,...discussion on "God fact or fiction" in the conversations-section is getting rather complex and as with any "good" discussion one topic after another appears on the sidelines. We had heavy words like: the "Holocaust" and "genetic manipulation"come up. Not that I don't like a convesation or discussion to move on from one topic to the next, but I myself feel that those topics are worthy of their own seperate conversation.Maybe I just should be bold enough (after all I am only a newcomer here ) and start one ...besides, it doesn't seem to matter howmany times I already have made it clear that I am not a Christian, as soon as some one writes the word "god" people assume the topic to be Christianity.
I know I make it sound now as if I am anti-Christian...and I am not, as a matter of fact I admire everyone who is willing and able to walk their path...the right way; i.e. following the dogma and/or doctrine of their religion/filosophy or (as I have come to learn from a more scientific mind here on h2g2) the dogma of science, where there doesn't seem to be any room for myth and legend...pity, my friend; you miss out on a lot of beautiful things.
Anyway, I am seriously considering to start a convo on the topic of gen-maipulation and where it would/could/will lead us. Hope to see you there.
