Turning Mock Turtle
.
Okay, I'm probably the last person in the evolution debateratti who has heard this but, after Bobby Henderson sent his revelation of the holy Flying Spaghetti Monster to the Kansas School Board, he received replies from some of the Board members. One, from Kathy Martin of District 6, was particularly interesting. In its entirety, it read:
It is a serious offense to mock God.
It just sort of sits there, doesn't it? Commenting would seem like gilding the lily. It has a symmetry that would be spoiled by adornment.
.
But it can be said that it is a serious offense to take money under false pretenses . . . such as pretending to have a brain in order to collect the pay of a public official.

It was a relief to see some of the Board members had a sense of humor. I also noted one member's comment that the FSM supporters sent unique messages rather than the form letters submitted by the anti-evolutionists.
