   Mr. Deity: The Catholics are awful.

   Oh, dear dear dear! Bill Donohue is going to threaten a boycott of Mr. Deity now.

   I met Mr Deity in the bar after the GAC, really nice bloke.
   I think I managed to accomplish a decent chat, but it was hard to tell due to all the internal squeee-ing that was going on in my head.
   Unexpectedly bumping into internet heros is complicated.

   Wow, I never would have guessed that Mr. D used to be a Mormon. He’s quite the natty gent, and that sure isn’t a Utah accent. Maybe he should start a service, “Makeovers for Mormons.”

   Yikes! I just realised how much BKD looks like Rolf Harris.

   Oh, oh, I liked Joe’s “proof because I said so” (probably got if from the Bible) and “impress the rubes by a fake translation of Egyptian hieroglyphics.”

   Yeah, I guess that was a different episode, but the Mormon show has some pretty good lines.

   I must have missed an episode or a few somewhere – what happened to Larry?

    Aww, what a bunch of cards. Right after you watch Dr. Diety and Smith, be sure to catch “Mr. Deity and the Science Advisor” (PZ). That’s one I never saw.

    How’s that go again, “ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny?”

    Clever as ever – and PZ, you’re just squee-ably cute in your brief appearance. (Before you get all offended – note that this is coming from someone who considers 1500# Kodiak bears with 4″ claws to be “squee-ably cute” too. )

    Great as always, especially the begging bit, BUT why does he want to get to Darwin en route to LA and need help to cross the Atlantic Ocean? That’s a journey too far, unlss of curse he is coming to the UK!

    I enjoy all the messages I receive from god but this particular one here is a favorite of mine.

    Mr. Deity: The virtue of willful ignorance.
