See, now, if you inject a note of common sense into a prayer thread, people go bananas, like it's the end of the world. If, on the other hand, you bring this sort of trolling on to an otherwise sensible discussion of science, nothing happens at all. Nothing at all.
Just figured you'd find this interesting.
