A good, important read.

Now, Christianity did not "cause" slavery, anymore than Christianity "caused" the civil-rights movement. The interest in power is almost always accompanied by the need to sanctify that power. That is what the Muslims terrorists in ISIS are seeking to do today, and that is what Christian enslavers and Christian terrorists did for the lion's share of American history.?

If true, and that is a very big IF, this could be a game changer for electric vehicles

The price point, at least in the first couple of years until the EV tax credits expire would put the Bolt right in the heart of the mainstream market with a range that almost anyone can live with.  

The devil, as always remains in the details.

Apparently, I'm not alone in my increasing skepticism of the self-driving car
