I have never heard of such a thing, but I live in the Midwest, where religion has more of a passive stranglehold on society. It's not quite as out-and-out flaunted as in other places like the south. I have to say, however, that is quite disturbing. If my kid came home and told me he had been taken to one of those, it would take every ounce of willpower I have not to go on a rampage.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
