(Complete listing)Crude absurdities, trivial nonsense, and sublime truths are equally potent in readying people for self-sacrifice if they are accepted as the sole, eternal truth.
[Eric Hoffer, The True Believer, 1951, section 57]

It's times like this that I am thankful I am not a biologist.

"IF" there were a God/Creator, could we call "Him/Her/It" a loving God if he has duped all of you scientist into spending your entire earthly lives minutely examining His/Her/It's Creation, while you not even receiving a comforting Cosmic pat on your collective heads in acknowledgment for doing all this labor for free while the non-scientist diddle their lives in cushy comfort while pondering the results of your free labor, without even acknowledging said labor, only because the results of your labor verify the existence of their Creator?
I therefore propose: "Take a Scientist to Church Week" as a grand thank you to all scientist for your continuing free labor of which each new "discovery" only make us nonscientist gush (and blush) at the ever more intelligence of our grand designer -- God.
Shalom,
Bro. Bartleby
