Stallman survives Peruvian quake

| I read that a church collapsed on worshipers during mass; later I heard that
| the priest had been rescued. Believers surely attributed the rescue to the
| good will of a benevolent deity. They probably did not attribute the collapse
| to the ill will of an evil deity, but it would be equally logical. In the
| 18th century, an earthquake destroyed a cathedral in Lisbon, killing
| thousands of believers. Many in Europe began to doubt religion as a result.
