    Out of curiosity, why is it that people get bent out of shape about this 'religion'?

    I got to witness an anonymous rally in San Diego about a year or so ago and it was just silly. Yes, you and I may know the whole thing is a crock, but isn't there supposed to be freedom of religion?

    Not looking to start a pissing contest, I'm just wondering where people get their priorities.
