And for America to be returned to our "Christian heritage."
Yeah, let's return to the religious convictions of our great founders like Thomas Jefferson, Ben Franklin, and Thomas Paine.

Natter 37: Oddly Enough, We've Had This Conversation Before.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
it was in the course description, so it's not like she wasn't warned before walking into the class
Eh -- we get people who sign up for krav and don't like hitting things.
Then they leave.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
How can they do that? I mean, you're just left to draw your own conclusions?

All of them standing around the flag pole like it was some kind of religous artifact.
It's a tenet of the Mormon faith that the Constitution was divinely inspired.
Also, members are encouraged to make friends with non-members in an effort to bring them into the church. It's called fellowshipping, and the non-believers are supposed to be so inspired by the godly and enriching lives of their new friends that they'll ask how to be godly and enriched themselves. This is, of course, made easier if the member's family actually is godly and enriched, which a lot of times is not the case.

If people don't stop referring to Mr. Rogers in this sort of conversation, even in a "no, never him" peripheral sort of way, I'm going to post links to pictures of Pertwee in the shower.
Does that mean I shouldn't mention my friend who used to get freaked out by him when he would use the Lady Elaine Fairchilde voice to talk to her and others at the production studio?

It really isn't very hard to function in a society that consists of a lot of people who hold opinions you think are wrong.

True enough, we ourselves do it every day.

Also, why would an Intelligent Design just muck around with single cell organisms for billions of years?
Lack of funding?
I particularly dislike the notion that God put fossils in the rock to test people's faith. A petty, practical-joke-playing God is a good thing?
