Which means I can just SAY I'm a pagan but I never bother doing rituals or studying any kind of sacred texts or developing a relationship with deity, etc! I can go around and not be Christian, but I won't quite be anything else either because I just can't commit and I can't be ARSED to commit!"

That is (unfortunately) the only TP book I've read so far (sure to change over this summer).  Sheer genius, in the usual TP manner.

cuius testiculos habes, habeas cardia et cerebellum.

"Will you help?"
V. You Don't Even Believe In Me!
"I'm a practical man."
VI. And Brave, Too, To Declare Your Athieism Before Your God.

Not to threadjack, but if you can find it on Limewire, Kazaa, or whereever, I heartily recommend the episode of Penn & Teller's "Bullshit!" series in which they debunk the Bible.

Quote from: Penn JilletteIt is fair to say that the Bible contains equal amounts of fact, history, and pizza.

I just bought Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman's Good Omens.

Looks like it's going to be lots of fun.

I read Interesting Times, and absofugginlutely loved it. I haven't had a chance to get into the rest of his books though (too busy reading The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy and some obscure Heinlein books). Is it just me, or is The Lady supposed to be Eris?
