Re: [-empyre-] Code fury

Someone mentioned the invention of God earlier, as if He is not a "code",
which like DNA in the West, is hugely productive for science, culture, art
-- Watson knows this, as do academics, citizens, and businessmen. No
conspiracy. It would be a shame to foreclose the productivity of God-ness
because of ethical passions. Why and for whom do people desire to
re-appropriate Master utopian narratives is more of my interest, and I think
Judith's?

RELIGION USED TO DUCK VACCINATIONS
Exemption: Parents who are suspicious of the shots are signing more fake
claims of faith.

Boston - Sabrina Rahim doesn't practice any particular faith, but she had no
problem signing a letter declaring that because of deeply held religious
beliefs, her 4-year old son should be exempt from the vaccinations required
to enter preschool.
  She is among a small but growing number of parents around the country who
are claiming religious exemptions to avoid vaccinating their children when
the real reason may be skepticism about the shots or concern they can cause
other illnesses. Some of these parents say that they are forced to lie
because of the way the laws are written in their states.
   "It's misleading," Rahim admitted, but she said she fears that earlier
vaccinations may be to blame for her son's autism. "I find it very
troubling, but for my son's safety, I feel this is the only option I have.
