Many orthodox people speak as though it where the business of septics to disprove received dogmas rather than that of dogmatists to prove them. This is, of course, a mistake. If i where to suggest that between the earth and mars there is a china teapot revolving around the sun in an elliptical orbit, nobody would be able to disprove my assertion provided i where careful to assert that the teapot is too small to be revealed even by our most powerful telescopes. But if i where to go on to say that, since my assertion cannot be disproved, it is intolerable presumption on the part of human reason to doubt it, i should rightly be thought to be talking nonsense. If, however, the existence of such a teapot where affirmed in ancient books, taught as the sacred truth every Sunday, and instilled into the minds of children at school, hesitation to believe in its existence would become a mark of eccentricity and entitle the doubter to the attentions of the psychiatrist in an enlightened age or of the inquisitor in an earlier time. -Bertrand Russell
Hre go a few more tips to add to yours. If using konqueror, set the javascript options to deny or ignore. Have the cookies set to ask/confirm for each. This can be done for firefox/iceweasel also. You can pre-search the site with dillo, links, e-links, or a few others.
Thank you, Its very kind of you to say. Things seem to have calmed down around here, so I'm contemplating deleting some of these help files as they become increasingly irrelevant.
