Some updates

Some recent updates:

• I have added an image to "Public Transport is Good. The Advantages of Pooled Transport." (2007).
• Added a section to "God Never Needs to Test Us" (2005): 4. God Testing People in the Christian Bible. "Sometimes, it is said in the Bible that God tests people. In Deuteronomy 8:1-2 God reveals that the 40-years in the wilderness was a test done by God to find out what was in people's hearts - whether they would still obey orders. In Deuteronomy 13:1-5 God sends some false prophets and wonder-workers as tests to see if people will follow other gods, and in 2 Chronicles 32:31 God is doing similar fact-finding tests. Yet an all-knowing God, creator of all time, knows exactly who will pass any tests, and knows exactly what is in everyone's heart. So either God is lying about his reasons, or, god is not actually all-knowing."
• Added section 5 to: "The Importance of Current Events is Amplified by our Egos: 5. The Truth: Crime is Falling and War is Less Frequent" (2005). And in section 2 I've added a note on the Dao De Jing by Lao Zi, who thought that civilisation itself was a mistake.
• Added section 1.4. to "Religious Clothing and Symbols in Secular Democracies: 1.4. 2011: The Banning of the Burqa and Niqab in France and Belgium".
