I guess we should just pretend what happened to scientists by the hands of the church never happened. While were at it lets not even talk about scientific theories, apparently Christians find that insulting.

Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.  They updated the Family Guy joke. eh... ![[Image: 10314461_875206779161622_3907189760171701548_n.jpg]](https://scontent-a-dfw.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xfp1/t1.0-9/10314461_875206779161622_3907189760171701548_n.jpg)
I think the show will have positive effect on population though. Millions will see it.

Haven't these idiots learned by now that the more you try to hide something, the more curious people become?
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Only to realize that I put in the headphones to my iPod, not the ones plugged into my computer. Okay, maybe that's only funny to me, but it was really funny.
Teenaged X-Files obsession + Bermuda Triangle episode + Self-led school research project = Atheist.

How many episodes are there going to be?
13 I believe.
Everything I needed to know about life I learned on Dagobah.
That's not enough!
