possible to do so. In the nineteenth and twentieth
centuries, however, in the wake of landmark
discoveries in the fields of chemistry, biology,
and genetics, the possibility of scientific
tampering with the hu...

hungry - one is less prone to read Mr. Lasch, less
inclined to think about civil rights, let alone
exercise them. Mr. Lasch is authoritarian and
patronizing, even when he is strongly trying to
convince us otherwise. The use of the phrase: "far
in excess of their needs" rings of destructive
envy. Worse, it rings of a dictatorship, a
negation of individualism, a restriction of civil

religion, in the classical sense of this word.
This is because it is being largely based not on
faith, but on philosophical rationale, which is
the reason why Taoism appeals to people who have
their sense of logic, as the cornerstone, upon
which their mental activity is based. The book Tao
Te Ching, which was allegedly written by Lao Tsu,
