I live in Kentucky and my family is very religious. I keep sane by finding comedy in their bind ignorance.

I do not think it is necessary to believe that the same God who has given us our senses, reason, and intelligence wished us to abandon their use, giving us by some other means the information that we could gain through them

-- Galileo Galilei
