A layer of fat underneath the skin is a much better insulator than fur for a warm-blooded water dweller. No primate has it—except man.

A simple quiz to test your suitability for conversion to Christianity. No need for you Christians to be offended—you can use it for recruiting! Want a simple browser and don’t like MicroSoft? Try Firefox. It’s free, its sophistcated, it works.
You can download (10 KB download) this applet right here in zip format. Zipped together as ChristBent.zip are an HTML file like this one (it probably is this one!) and the java applet class file, CBQuestioner.class. Just put the two in the same folder and it should work on a PC.
Heigh! Why not make a quiz sheet of the questions, ask your friends, parents, teachers or ministers to tick answers or you note them, then analyse their answers privately using the applet to find out whether they are good Christians? Good, eh!

Before you go, think about this…
The code of ethics, made in primitive societies, might not be forever correct. If we have built on behavior maladapted for modern conditions, we shall find that our mores, rules, norms and habits—our very ways of thinking—are leading us to disaster instead of giving us guidelines for a better existence.

The Spanish Inquisition sought to avoid direct responsibility for the burning of heretics by handing them over to the secular arm. To burn them itself, it piously explained, would be wholly inconsistent with its Christian principles. Few of us would allow the Inquisition thus easily to wipe its hands clean of bloodshed. It knew quite well what would happen.
