I think we're safe. They're probably too busy praying for our atheistic souls.

Good research Misbehaven.

Frem, I vote for a return to "Mind Your Own Business" as the motto for our money--this time I would put the full phrase in. I love that--sort of lends a sense of sovereignty to our profits and earnings.

Fellowtraveler, excellent points.

Thank you for posting this! I wish I could show it to my ultra-conservative, fundamentalist family. Oh wait I could, they'd just refuse to read it.

Glad to help out Whim. I sent it to some of the ultra-conservative members of my family, and I have yet to receive a response. I think it's the whole facts thing that's leaving them speechless.

Facts? What are these facts you speak of? Do I know what facts even are?

I'm kidding, I'm kidding! It's all in fun! Please don't barbaque me!

*adds another log to the fire*

You know facts: "truthiness," reality, actuality, certainty.

Truthiness... isn't that from The Colbert Report, where you make up your own truth?
