It was about that same age that my uncle gave me a pile of Heinlein novels. My mom was all, [titter] "oh, science fiction. Nothing there that could change a Catholic upbringing."

Lazarus Long - 1 Catholic church - 0

Sorry mom.

I bet the fundies are in a lather. I'm guessing this will be on the lips of a majority of preachers/pastors/priests and associated charlatans this Sunday.

"Why are people so afraid of others thinking for themselves?"

If someone doesn't think they way you want them to think, it diminishes his perceived power.

Parentally compelled attendance at Vacation Bible Camp = perfectly fine

Daily group recital of the Pledge, including "under God" = perfectly fine

Voluntary participation in a High School discussion group = indoctrination.

I see. I see clearly. Fuck you very much, Carol Costello, and the weasel words you rode in on (all of them, Katie).

What I think is that we are all just symbionts in some graduate student's thesis project in computer science, making him, therefor, God. I like to think of him as that fat naked guy at the keyboard they show a picture of here from time to time.
