Care to go for it on "the whole fundamentalist dogma >> fits into a queueig model rather nicely."? Gee, it's no fun when you have to explain your *jokes*. But here goes: So Mom and Dad put you on the life-queue (and if you think I'm going to get specific about when, you're crazy), and you get to be in a lot of queues from servers like "school" and "movies," but there's these 2 special ones, which we'll call "Lord" and "Satan". You get on their queues, and they put you back on the life queue. You can do each more than once, but recency seems to be important. So then you get on the death-queue, and that server, "Judgement", has 2, well, job classes that we can call "Salvation" and "Damnation", and can I stop now? >> How in the tiny world that you live in could you tell how many >> homosexuals are going which way? (Remember I still love you) Jeff claims that God has saved many gays. I was wondering how many He (or She) has created. (Remember I don't kiss and tell) >> Of course that's queueing... >> Ken Arndt You see, he admits it! It's not too difficult to "go for it" over a joke, so if you want to, sure, I'll insist that fundamentalism fits a queueing model. Note that it doesn't explain it, nor does it belittle it. After all, some modern philosophies may be modelled by a game of craps. Or poker. On the other hand, if you'd rather take the pro-queueing position (queues go front-to-back, so I'll understand if you're squeamish about it), I'll be glad to oppose it. -- *** *** JE MAINTIENDRAI ***** ***** ****** ****** 28 Nov 84 [8 Frimaire An CXCIII] ken perlow ***** ***** (312)979-7188 ** ** ** ** ..ihnp4!iwsl8!ken *** ***
