The assumption that every one of these groups is making—
and I think it’s important to acknowledge that every group, from scientist to Sikh, assumes this—is that they are right. That they are somehow behaving rationally.
But the fact that we can get so angry about this stuff means that it’s not rational
and I think we could get a hell of a lot further by synthesizing these beliefs
than by finding more and more nuanced ways to call each other dicks.
So I guess the moral of the story
is that all you religious people need to stop hating on the scientists, and vice versa
because at the end of the day, we are all united
by our desire for sweet explosions.
THE END.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Cory O’Brien (aka Ovid Naso)
is a dude who likes myths a whole lot.
When he’s not writing them in books
he is usually yelling them at people in bars
or posting them on his website bettermyths.com.
He grew up on top of a hill in Los Angeles, California
where there are basically no myths at all
but where one time a guy got shot in the leg outside his friend’s house
and broke in to use the telephone.
Now he lives in Chicago, Illinois where it is much colder
but on the other hand no injured people have broken into his house. Yet.
He is currently doing an MFA in writing at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago
not that it shows.
Also, birds really freak him out.
They’re like tiny, winged sociopaths.
Seriously, have you ever looked at those things?
