The EU

Google says the EU requires a notice of cookie use (by Google) and says they have posted a notice. I don't see it. If cookies bother you, go elsewhere. If the EU bothers you, emigrate. If you live outside the EU, don't go there.

What to Make of This

Law Professor Ann Althouse focuses on the line that talks about religion being on the decline, and the implications for accurate predictions from the US House of Representatives.

I rather focused on the founding Fathers thinking a militia is important vis-a-via a standing army.

We have a militia in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and it has not exemption for religious scruples.  And it doesn't include women.  I need to write to the Three Musketeers and see what they think of that.

I think that there is an error in fact here. While it can be easily argued and supported that institutional religion is on the decline, I am not at all convinced that Christian belief is similarly on decline. The church (all flavors) has lost its way and its relevance to one's individual belief and need structure. Instead, church has become drama and shrewd business. The driving reason for Rome to reach out to the Anglicans is twofold. One, they need paying membership and two, they are still rankled about losing control back in the days of Henry VIII.

That said, I would suggest that Christianity is on the rise, but in ways that defy the lovers of metrics.
