46. Sorry, but bringing to the discussion a fictional device from a fictional TV program
isn't a thought experiment. A thought experiment by the very definition of experiment has to be based in reality. Riding a beam of light may be a good subject for a thought experiment; human beings are too complex.

Further, you didn't answer my questions, ie what happens to 'snow flake' after s/he is decanted. Stone serious, you would give these infants over to the fed to care for?

Stone serious again, would your program be mandatory or voluntary? If voluntary, not much would change. If mandatory, for starters, how would it be enforced?

Finally, why the hell should we care what the fundies think{sic}?
