But government buildings probably have vending machines, and those may be using exclusive contracts on some level (ie, only Pepsi vending machines). So perhaps there could be religion-specific vending machines, where you could get a Lemon-Lime Holy Water or some Wiccan Mushroom Chews. Hmmm... what if you washed down some mushroom chews with holy water?
"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."
