But first they should spend an all-nighter in a chapel, praying and perfecting their geekhood.
And by "chapel," I assume you mean "Apple Store"?

Fortunately, the disgraceful hypocrites who make up the Bush administration don’t win every battle:
A Young Bush Appointee Resigns His Post at NASA
By ANDREW C. REVKIN
THE NEW YORK TIMES
George C. Deutsch, the young presidential appointee at NASA who told public affairs workers to limit reporters' access to a top climate scientist and told a Web designer to add the word "theory" at every mention of the Big Bang, resigned yesterday, agency officials said.
Mr. Deutsch's resignation came on the same day that officials at Texas A&M University confirmed that he did not graduate from there, as his résumé on file at the agency asserted.
The resignation came as the National Aeronautics and Space Administration was preparing to review its policies for communicating science to the public. The review was ordered Friday by Michael D. Griffin, the NASA administrator, after a week in which many agency scientists and midlevel public affairs officials described to The New York Times instances in which they said political pressure was applied to limit or flavor discussions of topics uncomfortable to the Bush administration, particularly global warming.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I bet it was the fact that he never graduated (and lied about it) that got him fired, and not the stupid religious-right-appeasing anti-science crap.

You know NASA's IG is under investigation, from the FBI, no less, right?
I wonder if Griffin is cleaning house. It's sort of amazing, actually.

I didn't think the religious right had much of a problem with the big bang. Or maybe that's just the Catholic church that's kosher with the big bang.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Last week I told someone I felt that this administration was the most corrupt since Nixon. I'm starting to think I was being generous.

Yeah, the Catholic Church is OK with it. But many ID people disagree with the big bang too. In fact, many conflate the two (which is very bizarre to me).

I'm not sure that I understand. How could there be a Big Bang if the world is only a few thousand years old, and people came along the same week as the cosmos?
