I’m stuck at home today looking after my two sick, and very willing to complain about it, girls.

Thanks for putting a little sunshine into my morning. This was more effective at perking me up than a pot of coffee.

BTW, in a darwinian, purposeless world, it would seem that religiocity is a darwinian product. As such, considering that there is no meaning anyway, why should scientists be at war with this clearly selected trait?

Obviously, they are just responding in a way that will help promulgate their own selfish, materialist gene.
