    Let's hope it's gonna tell the powers-to-be (and to-be-not) that the
[cave] diving community is not just a bunch of wierdos but some serious,
dedicaced and to-be-reckoned-with community when it comes to local planning
issues, just like French speleologists got a lot of respect by pointing out
the connectivity of some underground networks and thus helping pass some of
the earliest landfill regulations.

Jesus may love everyone, but when this Jesus instills hatred in
people  to the point of having them kill each other for Jesus's
sake, this  could  be  a good reason  to have  Jesus  outlawed.
