    It was more a light jab than anything.

The "special kind of idiocy", you mean?

Not that I'm willing to discuss anarchy right now; it's something we can go on to with something like #talkpolitics or #talkanarchy afterwards, if you wish to.

    Well there's a few reasons to discuss early man and religion.

Well, I guess too quick to throw it off the cliff in my head. Indeed, history is interesting, whatever it can tell us about, and I shouldn't have kicked it so hard. That being said, I expected that we'd start with modern-day religion, which affected my response in a big way.

    In fact, you could start the thread when you're ready and make a shout out to me. I would love that.

I don't think this will go on well because I feel like I'm lacking proper strong arguments for that on my own. Besides, I'm curious about what others might think on the matter, whether I like it or not. If you don't mind, I'd rather have you start the post with arguments that you think are strong enough, and I'll reply to those.
