Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek. I kind of absolutely must have that last sticker -- you know, I understand a lot of stupid things... well, no, I can understand why people convince themselves of a lot of stupid things, but you know: FOSSILS. THEY EXIST.
That always baffles me. Have I ever ranted at you about the Smithsonian's fossil exhibits? (Basically, I was standing in the SI: Natural History Museum, gazing at a wall of progressing horse bones, and wondering how anyone could really... logically refute that. And then I went home, Googled, and found a plethora of articles basically stating "NU UH!!! Horrible biased liberal ungodly museum!" And then I cried.)
Once at work, I Googled the website of the "Creationism Museum" or whatever the hell it's called, that place down in Kentucky, to show a co-worker, and basically the more I looked at the page, the madder I got. Half an hour later, I was a seething, snarly mess.
