Hey, speaking of governments and ignorance...

A Government campaign in Italy: http://courageman.blogspot.com/2007/...uscan-sun.html



So, it would appear that we have governments willing to support anything on either side of the aisle on this matter, regardless of data.

The data are definitely NOT THERE to support this campaign. It's a nice sentimental scientism at work, but not hard science with demonstrated correlations. Unless you are also willing to accept "the God gene" and various other pseudoscientific hypotheses.

On-going study certainly indicates that evaluation is in progress. THERE IS NO SCIENTIFIC CERTAINTY of this allegation.
