Thus spake Jefferson, in whose light we are all small shadows.
He had a wonderful point. When reason is ineffectual against imbecilic and irrational but stoutly held beliefs what is left but to ridicule them?
There are some who abandon that which makes us special. They disregard our ability to reason and learn, change, improve. They attach themselves to ancient myths, to the discredit and disadvantage of society in general. To them, intellect and the collective knowledge of our species is corrosive and poisonous. They are willing to go to war over it. Their bloodlust to perpetuate their superstition is exceeded only by their deliberate ignorance. We must not let them prevail. Just say No. DF
