Everybody needs to goto church on sunday, preferable a less moderate one, southern baptists or evangelicals. Interrupt the proceedings and ask if you could introduce an alternate theory to the one they are discussing. If they jeer you, keep up your head and proclaim that science should be tought along side faith in church! Then moon them on the way out and try not to get shot. Oh and hand out evolution pamphlets on data and where they can get good information...

Now I just need the energy to make some pamphlets.

Heres to the day when all religious schools are teaching Evolution.

"...things I have neither seen nor experienced nor heard tell of from anybody else; things, what is more, that do not in fact exist and could not ever exist at all. So my readers must not believe a word I say." -Lucian on his book True History

"...They accept such things on faith alone, without any evidence. So if a fraudulent and cunning person who knows how to take advantage of a situation comes among them, he can make himself rich in a short time." -Lucian critical of early Christians c.166 AD From his book, De Morte Peregrini

Hey, that's an actual good idea. Don't forget the helmet and bullet-proof jackets, though. And I hope you're fit to run... really fast. Y'know, lynching mobs can be fast

While a tempting thought, wouldn't this be lowering yourself to the rude behavior of others?

The foundation of morality is to . . . give up pretending to believe that for which there is no evidence, and repeating unintelligible propositions about things beyond the possibliities of knowledge.

Wendy, that is a classic.

I would rather face a cold reality than delude myself with comforting fantasies.

You are free to believe what you want to believe and I am free to ridicule you for it.
