Why Religion is More Popular Than Science
April 11th, 2008Religion has FREE FOOD:
 Free Food at the New Life Church |
One of the local Elizabeth City churches gives out free dinners every night of the week. This is a fantastic community service, crucial for our impoverished small town. This isn’t just good works, it’s good business.
Of course, it was science that refined the agriculture, making it productive enough to feed our planet’s population explosion. It’s science that makes sure the food is safe to eat. It’s science that built the complex technological infrastructure to deliver the food hundreds of miles at incredibly low cost.
When I explained this to a religious member of the local community, she replied, “I am grateful for science, and I am grateful for god making science.”
Science needs to open a soup kitchen.
How about a “Church” of science?
(bound to annoy Scientologists = bonus)
(will also annoy Christian Scientists…double bonus. Triple word score and additional pun on SOMma for annoying Science of Mind practitioners, double pun bonus for the verb/gerund pun in that last clause.)
Would it be ethical for an Evolutionist to serve Primordial Soup? Beverage service from Russell’s Teapot? Would you sit down at the Periodic Table to eat?

Um. I think I’ll have the cake please.
