Here's a thought from: http://ideas.4brad.com/node/303

Washington, DC: The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
issued a stern warning today to Televangelist Pat Robertson. Robertson had
recently condemned the citizens of Dover, PA to the wrath of God for not
voting in a school board that would teach Intelligent Design in classes.

"We'd like to say to the good Reverend Robertson: if there is a disaster in
your area, don't turn to Science, you just rejected it from your life," AAAS
said on its daily television show broadcast from Washington, the 3.14159 Club.

"And don't wonder why it hasn't helped you when problems begin, if they
begin. We're not saying they will, but if they do, just remember, you just
pushed science out of your life. And if that's the case, don't ask for its
help because it might not be there," they said. "In particular, you won't
have a phone to call the ambulance, and it won't exist even if you could
call it. And even if the doctor lived next door and you could call her,
she would only bleed you and put smelly poultices on your forehead to
balance your humours. And she would be a guy."

"Actually, we're just kidding," the AAAS later corrected.
"Science works
whether you believe in it or not. That's what's really cool about it," they
said.

Right on, AAAS, baby !
