>>>>>Nothing personal intended against this man, but it certainly is interesting that at this time, a name so closely associated with "Omen" would become prominent on Capitol Hill. Or that Molokai is similar to "Molech". Intersting times, indeed.

I suggest actually reading about what Father Damien did. Once you do, you will no longer be tempted to make such comments.

So much for stating that I was *not* making any personal (negative) comments about Father Damien. Egads. It was comment about that particular *name*, and its secular associations, at this period in history. Not that hard, unless someone is just itching to be offended.
