I'm up at 2:24 AM for no reason other than I can't sleep, which is annoying beyond belief. The plumber is going to be here at 8 AM to do things that I used to do. /rant
It took me awhile to figure out where you current sig came from. Pterry, now there's a story writer! For the life of me, I can't understand how I didn't discover his writing until 2018. 
Not just my signature, also my religious views.
I would call Granny my favourite Discworld character, but I have this sneaking admiration for Sam Vimes.

"What can one say about Michael Jackson? He is one of the world’s most acclaimed entertainers, an innovative and exciting songwriter whose dancing seems to defy gravity and has been heralded by the likes of Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly."
-Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
