But, fascinatingly, one Ron Tagliapietra turned up as a co-author of

are morally better than oblique? Oh, wait, I think I may get it.
They've probably had to come up with some utterly contorted (and
incorrect at some level) definitions of theorems and axioms that are
encrusted with "Biblical" nonsense; the regular plain (and immoral)
definitions are very likely far too threatening for them.
Did you take the trouble of actually reading the book, or are these just
the baseless prejudiced comments of a Christiophobe?
So do you actually think there could possibly be a valid reason why
fundies would need their own geometry?
Is there any indication, then, apart from somebody's wild imagination
based on nothing more than the _title_ of a book, that that is the case?
