Simple solution: find some new friends.
The one thing that might drive me off FR are creationists. It truly upsets me so many otherwise sane conservatives adhere to such mumbo-jumbo. And I have to say that most scientists, whose instincts are generally conservative, are repelled from the conservative movement for exactly this reason. So I wish *you* and your pals would find some new friends. A lot of creationist arguments are entirely consistent with multiculti-liberalism. You might like it there.
