Good for them. It may be just me, but "Believe like we do!" "Uh, OK!"
somehow just never worked for me. Especially when the only two answers
to most of the *difficult* questions were "There are some things Man was
not meant to know" and "How dare you question the word of God!", both of
which always struck me as just ways to avoid saying, "Uh, no fucking
clue, dude. If you ever find out, tell me."
