Subject: [lojban] Gismu space?

coi ju'o zoi gy. Is gismu space as full as cmavo space? I notice that th= e gismu
list is very old. Certainly there have been suggestions about this. What= is
most annoying is that certain very specific gismu, like cinfo (lion) exi= st. By
themselves, they are fine. However, the lack of needed words in science,= math,
and technology makes it a shame. Maybe it's the transhumanist in me spea= king. I
would hope that gismu (and cmavo) would reflect a move towards science a= nd
technology. We should not have idiocy like Christianity elevated to gism= u.
Maybe make is a fu'ivla "irrational suiciders" or something. .gy. .u'ina= i co'o

The language itself should not reflect a particular world view.  Ch= ristianity is a huge part of the modern world, and it deserves a basic word,= *non*judgmental word.
