It was a means of control. I'm pretty sure if they knew the kinds of advances we made today and how easier life is with the things they persecuted people for, would you be so quick to snuff it, or would you think they'd embrace it for a catastrophic advantage over their enemies? |

But as soon as the struggling scientists start curing all sorts of things, our holy friends will start saying god allowed us, though stem cells, and take all the credit again to attempt to play the silly faithful. |
