I have examined this posting carefully but cannot find any
Quayle Content to it.  If you want a reply to your question
as phrased, please take it to alt.atheism or talk.religion.misc.
My answer here will deal only with the subject of Quayle and
religion.

I do not have any evidence of Dan Quayle discussing oppression
of religion.  Mr. Quayle is more concerned with religion being
ignored.  To Mr. Quayle, I reply that I have every right to
practice or not practice any religion, as this is clearly
specified in the Constitution.  Therefore, if Mr. Quayle wishes
religion to not be ignored, then the purveyors of religion
ought to release a later version as there are numerous bugs in
most of them.  I will continue to use my Secular Humanism 
Operating System as it has the closest mapping to reality.

Short list of current bugs in religious OS's:

Christianity:
   - Too many competing flavors (Evangelical, Lutheran, Methodist,
       Mormon, Catholic, etc)
   - Errors in manual (bats are not birds, pi is not 3, 2 competing
       creation stories, 2 competing lineages for Joseph).
   - Users often become violent

Judaism:
   - Similar errors in manual (since first volume same as Christianity)
   - Users cannot discern difference between poetry and commandments
   - Four competing flavors (Orthodox, Conservative, Reform, Reconstructionist)
   - Chabad group declares arrival of Messiah which others do not recognize

Islam:
   - Errors in manual
   - Competing flavors lead to crossover into political system
   - Users often become violent

Hinduism:
   - Errors in manual
   - Reincarnation system has problems
   - Too many daemons to keep track of; leads to overloads

I hope this answers your question.

I heard on the news the other day that Clinton made an effort to end
some of Quayle's legacy by dismantling the President's Council on

	Rob, you might be surprised to learn that Bill actually picked
Copeland's music HIMSELF and, even more impressively, actually wrote
HIS OWN speech.  Yup.  Name one time that Bush or Quayl actually wrote
their own speeches.  Didn't think so.  (I can just see Danoe burning
the midnight oil writting a speech "Now, are there two 'k's in 'thank'
or one?")
	Secondly, Clinton is going to be our President for _at_least_
the next 4 years.  Deal with it and stop being such a bloody sore
loser.

Dan never did pass his Indiana bar exam.  He took the easiest
one so he could practice in D.C.

Maybe he'll move to a state that has an easier driver's test.

	Anybody else remember a TV show from about 6-8 years back
about an orangutan that they did some kind of intelligence experiment
on, making it able to talk?  I know that there is a movie called "Mr.
Smith Goes to Washington" starring Jimmy Stuart (classic flick) but I
think the TV show had the same name, or something similar. I do remember
that it had a _very_ common name, like Mr. Smith in the title.
	That would be much more in-line with reality than the Jimmy
Stuart version where the lead character actually has substantial cognitive 
ability.  Now, where can they get a monkey that will actually
tollerate being called "Mr Quayle" more than once???

Yeah, and I also heard that the publisher (no info on which one) is going to
market the book in Christian bookstores as well regular outlets.  Publisher
said that that distribution strategy worked well for Oliver North's book.

Nah, i don't find religion very opressing.  Oh, i find some religious
zealots quite tiresome - particularly on a warm summer day, when i
just bought an ice cream cone and see an empty seat on a bench in the
sun, and on my way over there a Mormon missionary steps in front of me
and starts talking.  Now that's tiresome.  But all i normally have to
do is make bug eyes and start invoking Father Odin, and they run in
the other direction.  So it's a long way from opressive.

What?  My post makes no sense?  That makes two of us, i think.

(Advice to people who want to use the above plot as a guaranteed
Mormon-repellent: get your hands on a Thorshammer if you possibly can.
It completes the picture.)

1/19/93:

Reported in the San Jose Mercury News...a reporter called the
office of Quayle's press secretary, a Mr. Beckwith, but the
person who answered seemed unfamiliar with the proper routine.
"No, nobody's here," she said.  "They've all gone."

So Quayle, the consummate La-Z-Boy, took off a day early.

Actually, Quayle only has to take a written and a eye test to get his 
liscense back. If he waits untile the end of the month he  has to  take a 
driving test again.

Hey Kiddies -- try this at home:

Wait till your whole family is around the table -- wait till dad has 
a carbonated beverage half in his mouth, and then mention Dan and the
Think Tank...Watch the fun begin.  ;-)

That's EXACTLY how I mentioned it to my father...what a mess.

OBNotQuayle:  Besides Mr. Davis, do any of you OTHER guys live in Maryland?
I'm gonna be moving there in a few weeks.
