Uh, you idiot! First of all, the SOLE REASON cited for taking the post down was "peacock" language. Is that clear? According to Wiki policy, this is not a good reason. Second of all, I DID cite the quotation. Here's another: http://www.chomsky.info/interviews/1990.htm. And another: http://richarddawkins.net/userComments,page1,19142. And another: http://books.google.com/books?id=ILMLqu4I9NIC&pg;=PA21&lpg;=PA21&dq;=%22my+position+is+that+we+should+not+succumb+to+irrational+belief%22&source;=web&ots;=DKcF0I_-3Y&sig;=QMqLPWlyHCDtQnlo85nOEuQeJl0&hl;=en. 

 Please, put Chomsky's name back up on the list immediately. 76.24.27.138 (talk)
