Can I not read my wonderful Scienceblogs without this jackass and his link spamming? I've seen this bullshit about atheists on like 5 blogs today. pzdummy, blow it out your ass, nobody wants to read your insulting bullshit on your crappy site (double-spaced text must give you a boner). Wrath of God, Nostradamus, jesus, throw a little Deepak Chopra in there and you'll have the trifecta of crap.
