Maurruzh in the pit of hell 30 Sep 2007 The arch-Enemy of all humanity, PZ Mocals, has posted what he no doubt thinks is a funny skit. I told him good, I did. There’s no way we can tolerate this attack of godlessness. Humor Religion

Hey, in a probably-vain attempt to win the SciBlogs commenting contest, I urge you to write a sequel!
