A PZ Myers Quote

"What has occurred over the course of the last few centuries is a growing (but by no means universal or certain) recognition that science gets the job done, while religion makes excuses. Sometimes they are very pretty excuses that capture the imagination of the public, but ultimately, when you want to win a war or heal a dying child or get rich from a discovery or explore Antarctica, you turn to science and reason, or you fail."

- PZ Myers, biology professor

I download and save almost everyone of your graphics ... and should've ck'd my folder because you probably posted these before.

Keep doing what you do, NeoGreen! Love your posts.
