The absinth you can buy today in most european contries is not same as it was back then. The Level of Tujon has been reduced
french drinking ritual:
* 2-4 cl Absinth in a glass
* pour ice cold water over a spoon with the sugar cube
* dilute at the rate of 1:3 -1:5
swiss drinking ritual:
* same as french minus the sugar
Czech drinking ritual
* same as french, but set the sugar on fire, when it is molten put the spoon in the absinth and add the water. be careful that the spoon is not burning anymore when you put it in the absinth!

"It seems to me that the idea of a personal God is an anthropological concept which I cannot take seriously. I also cannot imagine some will or goal outside the human sphere. Science has been charged with undermining morality, but the charge is unjust. A man's ethical behavior should be based effectually on sympathy, education, and social ties and needs; no religious basis is necessary. Man would indeed be in a poor way if he had to be restrained by fear of punishment and hope of reward after death
