Yeah that had me puzzled as well. There was a good reason that Islamic scholars during the golden age contributed so much to math. Math was heavily used by the Muslims for matters of faith like calculating prayer times, religious taxes and inheritance shares.

Bullshit. The theory of evolution does not require that you prove that god does not exist. It just redefines what god (if you believe in him) did and didn't do.

GTA V (and all the rest of the so called A list games) are just rehashes of a proven formula. Anything that deviates from these proven formulas has a very hard time finding investors. That's why the market is ruled by sequels and me-too games.

The New World had untapped resources and (most of all) habitable lands up for grabs. It was for the most part a known entity.

Will there be a semi-monastic order of warriors pledged to man it and protect the realms of men?

But ActiveX isn't part of .NET and never was.
