Consider handicapped people. not too many years ago they would not have been able to cope and thus their genes (which can't be DENIED as a factor) would have died out. In a strain of overly powerful PSI, depending on the ratio, nonpsi would be phased out or artificially supported by the psi as handicapped. Nonpsi would remain a significant part of society only if their numbers remained proportional to the strength of PSI's powers. In this case there would be racial wars, prejudice, and tyranny. For a good description read Kathrine Kurtz's Deryni books. As for cooperation, among the intelligent, yes, among the masses, worse fear and hatred than we currently have racially. Rich Magill CWRU ps. for all unbelievers who would like to see test results.. Isn't there also a prize for the first man who can prove that Christ ever lived? I rest my case. ----------------------------------------------------------------- gopher://quux.org/ conversion by John Goerzen of http://communication.ucsd.edu/A-News/ This Usenet Oldnews Archive article may be copied and distributed freely, provided: 1.
