I was a bit nervous coming into work today because I worried that I might get grief from my more liberal colleagues because of it, but that didn't happen-- either they didn't see it or they didn't care!<br /><br />It was actually when I was looking at a small sculpture of an ancient Egyptian husband and wife that the thought in my letter struck me.

Every attempt to redefine human nature against the evidence of history and anthropology is just ridiculous.Angelohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08700583384744567752noreply@blogger.com
