Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I hear "Judeo-Christian" and then to think "ok, so we (the white guy Christinan establishment) like the Jews now. So include 'em for this."
After WWII that was exactly the point - religious to differentiate us (Americans) from the Soviets, and "Judeo" to make it clear we also weren't Nazis.
The Ig-Nobel for Management makes so much sense it's depressing:

Trudy, I tried, but much as I love Scorsese and MKW, I hate it. I thought I would love it...I have a sad. The production design people deserve a prize, though.

My sister is all "Dr!" and I'm all "You'll always be Missy to me, young'un."
Me and my lowly B.A. figure if someone put in the time and effort and big brains to get a PhD, if they want to be called "Doctor," that's fine by me.
But not if they want to be called "Doctor Judeo-Christian," because that would just be weird.
Unless, of course, Suzy Christian and Alfred Judeo fell in love at a Who convention and procreated.
