Back in the 1970s, the Ford Pinto was mass-produced knowing full well that it could/would catch on fire if rear-ended.

Up until a few years ago, I was a “theistic evolutionist.” My husband talked till he was blue in the face to change my mind, but I was stuck in my views. Then, I actually read Darwin’s book (well, a little of it). I never had before. I just based my beliefs on what my …
