Quote: That's overlooking the massive contributions to science, medicine, and astronomy that churchmen have made throughout history. The monastic comunities were ideal places for research; in the Dark Ages they kept alive literacy, pharmacy, engineering, mathematics, and a whole range of Linnean biology stuff. Every Western European and most Eastern European schools and universities were initially religious foundations. Many Middle Ages scientists were supported by the church (and often granted clerical rank).
I meant that the entire fear of science and technology in general is based on the thought that each level of technology takes us further from the "paradise" of Eden and into a world where we worship science and technology instead. Which I don't mind, but some religious types have a problem with that.

Quote: We've not see it in-continuity yet, then? I worry sometimes how much of this PV stuff I've forgotten.
Not yet. It's still in my "in progress" folder. It's part of a quite funny conversation with Faite, Lisa, and the Chronicler, but I haven't been able to make it fit anywhere yet.
Quote: It's specially designed to be ambiguous, actually. Is it a throne? Is it just a really nice chair? What is he trying to say with it?
Yuki would say he's compensating for something. She would say it to his face, too.
Quote: I suppose in the most recent case she might have also borrowed 1/3 of the Doomherald's pants, but as I see it that reconstruction thing is very tricky anyway.
Yuki would say that he always did want to get her into his pants. She would say that to his face, too.
