How is it that Gayness is a sin, but talking about giving children as young as 5 electroshock therapy to supposedly 'cure' them of this gayness not?

You guys really need to up your moral standards. Unless you're into that whole 'Lying for Jesus' thing.

In which case, fucking hell.

Also I realized, Athens wasn't the center of an Ancient Empire. It was a prominent City State, but never has it been the center of an Empire. Greece was in the period Athens flourished a bunch of squabbling divided city states. Although it has been in a few Empires: The Ottomans, Persian, a couple others.

-'''The World Series''' is the championship series of [[Major League Baseball]]. It is also known as the "Fall Classic." The playoffs follow the regular season, culminating in the World Series in late October each year.   The event is a series of seven games played between the champions of the [[American League]] and [[National League]].
-Television ratings for the World Series peaked in 1978 and has declined to only about a third of that level today.  The biggest drop in ratings—roughly a third of the audience—occurred in 2005, when the scandal of performance-enhancing drugs and a congressional hearing rocked the sport,<ref>http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A43422-2005Mar17.html</ref> and the World Series television audience has never recovered since.<ref>http://www.baseball-almanac.com/ws/wstv.shtml</ref>

-The World Series has taken place annually since 1903, with the exception of 1904 and 1994.  The first World Series was the culmination of a bitter dispute between the new American League and the older National League. (The clubs went so far as to challenge each other to a game of football at the end of the 1902 season).  The two leagues organized a series of post-season exhibition games between each other, with the two pennant winners (The [[Pittsburgh Pirates]] of the National League and the [[Boston Red Sox]] of the American League) squaring off.  That series of games is considered the first World Series.  [[Boston]] beat [[Pittsburgh]] five games to three.  The win gave credibility to the American League and brought [[pride]] to Boston.
