And one other thing: I'm really annoyed at that woman who keeps referring to her church-going colleagues who "still believe in science." That just doesn't make sense. The beliefs of Christianity endlessly contradict science, so the only way to believe in both is to be selective, which is, in my mind, hypocritical.
