England vs Scotland, Atheist vs Christian, Reason vs Faith, Logic vs Superstition, Evolution vs Creation etc etc. i think you get the picture.
In the end logic and reason triumphed over faith and superstition.

Carrobie is white, Knob is Black.
Joined 28 Mar '10 Moves 3807 I'm just a gaul barbarian but I think that's a nice game.
One question.Suppose for a second that Scottish superstition would've had some christian faith in 21.Nf6+ to evolve his attack.
Then what logic would reason have used to save his atheist english creation?
toet.

i have petitioned my God and he shall deliver you into my hand!
but God cannot lie, and the only chance that you stand, is, if i displease him in some way , so that he withdraws his support.
