Are We What We Believe?
The difference between Christians and atheists isn’t all that big: there are at least 2,500 gods that humans believe in. Christians don’t believe in 2,500+ of them, and atheists don’t believe in 2,501+ of them.
Religion
“Any Teacher that Can Be Replaced By a Machine Should Be!”
“I’m sure the universe is full of intelligent life. It’s just been too intelligent to come here.” —Clarke
Science v. Religion
While I don’t solicit memes, preferring to find them myself, Bruce in Canada sent me this one yesterday with these comments:
Born a Sinner
“Activist”? If they say so. Ferroni is a history teacher at Union (N.J.) High School, named one of Men’s Fitness magazine’s “25 Fittest Men in the World” and People magazine’s “Sexiest Teacher Alive” …though it’s unclear whether or not that’s really a good thing.
Father, I Cannot Tell a Lie
There’s a lot more about the George Washington “Cannot tell a lie” story taught it American schools. Such as: it’s a total lie.

“The shadows are wrong.” Yeah, I noticed: I’m an old NASA guy. Try to keep with the point, OK?

“I contemplate with sovereign reverence that act of the whole American people which declared that their legislature should ‘make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,’ thus building a wall of separation between Church & State.” –President Thomas Jefferson, January 1802
