Most "modern" humans (and I suspect this includes
many libertarians, anarchists, extropians, etc.)
may still be extremely "susceptible to fatal cult
memes" -- like "state," "government," "country,"
"nation," "law," "king," "queen," "president,"
"god," "allah," etc. -- it's a long, deadly list.
What if at the bottom of most of the killing in
the Middle East there are "fatal cult memes."

Mr. Mann, After reading these articles I see I may have been preaching to
the choir on this list. I thank you for the wealth of information. -- Thomas<br>
