    Would it be incorrect to suggest that religion may have evolved throughout history so as to suit an evolving discourse of truth itself? That’s going to be an interesting paper – sounds like you’ll require a research assistant though!
    Trip sounds fantastic can’t wait to hear about it over coffee when you return.

    - Just watched a program on SBS ‘Darwin’s Dangerous Idea’ – sounds confronting! Lots of comments on the website, didn’t realise people are so passionate about this subject!

      When I write it, I’ll let you know ;-) Actually it’s a long term research program, part of what I am being covered for in my present grant.
