I have many reasons for being a skeptic. Too many to list here but I thought I'd take the time to share with you the top ten reasons why I became a skeptic.
1. Foaming at the mouth was getting old.
2. I enjoy feeling superior.
3. The other guy has to prove it.
4. I have a deep emotional need to verbally abuse people.
5. I was rejected by Harvard and I'm bitter.
6. It's not my fault that everyone else is an idiot.
7. I can't spell sinikal
8. I don't like the idea of anyone getting satisfaction from their beliefs.
9. Evolution is a fact, dammit!
10. It feels so good when I stop.
So I'm curious. Is it just me or is this pretty standard?

Ok. It's fun to shove sticks through foolish spokes. There is a certain melancoly rapsody to be appreciated as the as the ride carrying the deluded soul collapses in a tangle of mined quotes, straw men and plaintive protests of unfairness.
Howzzat?
