"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Thanks....Probably not appropriate then.
I'd like to buy a last minute gift for my niece before she heads off to school this weekend.
I thought a laptop/tablet combination would be nice....because laptops are sooooo heavy for the kids to carry around.
And I'll grill your pork chop, okay? I don't wanna bust up your progress. 
Buy her
