wmw999 2,169 #63 August 1, 2013 Quote unbiassed? I only have one ass -- does that make me unbiassed???That said (I had to), information that disagrees with you is not automatically biased. Just as it could be said that congresscritters help the banking industry and the defense industry, it could be said that congresscritters helped the internet -- through legislation and regulation. There just weren't any congresscritters around when the banking and defense industries came about, so no one had to think about an initial environment.

wmw999 2,169 #65 August 1, 2013 Absolutely. But information is just that -- how you package it is bias. "Information" in the Bible includes "Jesus wept," "Jesus made water into wine," and "God wanted Isaac to slay his son." Context matters, otherwise Jesus sounds like a wimpy wino, and God sounds pretty awful. Wendy P.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it.
