[extropy-chat] The Dark Ages

[Damien Broderick]

I see in NYT online an ad for:

<600 years of degenerate, godless, inhuman behavior.  THE DARK
AGES, Tonight 9/8c only As only The History Channel can bring
you.>

"godless"? I always thought "the dark ages" referred to the period of 
European history when squabbling blood-thirsty god-botherers rather 
conspicuously ruled the roost...
