what kind of language has the same word for 'to' and 'from' (not to mention 'into, onto, at' and 'against'?

this explains many things about modern english... but really! 'To' and 'From'. Utterly opposed meanings!

you should have this eeeeeevil with it anyway - just make a copy of it and once you've handed the actual version in, play around with the copy and submit it to the head of your church
=D

then there's my history presentation, which is going to include a diagram of who was converting and/or sleeping with whom in the Anglo Saxon church... someone's already suggested i present it to the chaplain as some kind of amusement :P

oh, I'm sure said chaplain would have a gay ol' time with it.
I'm sure you'll be richly rewarded in the afterlife for your great attempt to amuse the Church
