57. Going door to door selling Bibles gave me blisters.

Why continue? Because we must. Because we have the call. Because it is nobler to fight for rationality without winning than to give up in the face of continued defeats. Because whatever true progress humanity makes is through the rationality of the occasional individual and because any one individual we may win for the cause may do more for humanity than a hundred thousand who hug their superstitions to their breast.

63. I wanted to be able to suck up to Kil, just like Siberia. (Which I already have, just look at #34)

My grandmother told me she had a little girl run up to her in her church and she said, "I just found out that Santa does not exist. My parents lied to me. Does that mean God doesn't exist too?"

Because Heaven and Hell are full of christians.

Because it helped me learn more ways to con my burgeoning Cult of Personality, The Empire of Double-Blind Testing.

"...things I have neither seen nor experienced nor heard tell of from anybody else; things, what is more, that do not in fact exist and could not ever exist at all. So my readers must not believe a word I say." -Lucian on his book True History

"...They accept such things on faith alone, without any evidence. So if a fraudulent and cunning person who knows how to take advantage of a situation comes among them, he can make himself rich in a short time." -Lucian critical of early Christians c.166 AD From his book, De Morte Peregrini
